House Amendment No. 1
Deletes reference to:
105 ILCS 5/34-18.30 new

Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Amends the School Code. Adds a Section prohibiting soft drinks. Contains only a caption.

 Fiscal Note (Illinois State Board of Education)
 The State Board of Education can likely monitor compliance with existing staff that visit schools and through voluntary efforts and community monitoring within existing resources. It is likely that nearly every school has at least one vending machine that will no longer be permitted by House Bill 4058. The State Board of Education does not have sufficient information on the current situation or the possibilities of offsetting losses through alternative sales to make a reasonable estimate of lost revenues to school districts. While the State Board is also unable to estimate which districts might become repeat offenders, it is unlikely that many districts will risk the loss of GSA to make a profit from the sale of soft drinks. House Bill 4058, appears to be a service mandate which is eligible for state reimbursement of at least 50% of its costs.
