A. To complete the program to correct outstanding deficiencies, those serious deficiencies in the roofs of public school facilities identified pursuant to Section 22-24-4.1 NMSA 1978 as adversely affecting the health or safety of students and school personnel shall be corrected pursuant to this section, regardless of the local effort or percentage of indebtedness of the school district, subject to the following provisions:
(1) if the council determines that the school district has excess capital improvement funds received pursuant to the Public School Capital Improvements Act [Chapter 22, Article 25 NMSA 1978], the cost of correcting the deficiencies shall first come from the school district's excess funds, and if the excess funds are insufficient to correct the deficiencies, the difference shall be paid from the public school capital outlay fund; and
(2) if the school district refuses to pay its share of the cost of correcting deficiencies as determined pursuant to Paragraph (1) of this subsection, future distributions from the public school capital improvements fund pursuant to Section 22-25-9 NMSA 1978 shall not be made to the school district but shall be made to the public school capital outlay fund until the public school capital outlay fund is reimbursed in full for the school district's share.
B. It is the intent of the legislature that all awards for correcting outstanding deficiencies in public school roofs that may adversely affect the health and safety of students and school personnel be made pursuant to this section no later than September 30, 2005 and that funds be expended no later than September 30, 2008.
