(a) Commencing with fiscal year 1982-83, and each fiscal year thereafter, each of the six program sites specified in subdivision (b) of Section 42920 shall receive, in addition to the base revenue limit, an allowance from the amount annually transferred to Section A of the State School Fund equal to the amount the district spent on foster children service programs in fiscal year 1981-82, adjusted to reflect cost-of-living increases by the total percentage increase received by all categorical education programs. In no event shall this cost-of-living adjustment exceed the inflation adjustment provided pursuant to Section 42238. This allowance shall be used exclusively for foster children services. The six program sites may continue to record revenue received pursuant to this subdivision in the same manner used to record revenue received for foster children services in the 1981-82 fiscal year. The six program sites shall maintain their foster children services programs in fiscal year 1995-96 and each subsequent fiscal year at a program level comparable to that at which they administered those programs in fiscal year 1994-95. (b) Commencing with fiscal year 1982-83, the base revenue of each of the six school districts specified in subdivision (b) of Section 42920 shall be permanently reduced in an amount equal to the amount spent on foster children services in fiscal year 1981-82.
