            [January 
			14, 2013] 
            Logan-Mason-Menard Regional 
			Superintendent of Schools Jean Anderson's office has received the 
			10th payment of Logan County sales tax revenue for school 
			facilities. The payment received Thursday covers the sales month of 
			October, and the amount received was $146,304.84. | 
        
            |  These funds go to all public school districts that have territory in 
			Logan County, based on the number of students who live in that 
			territory. The funds may be used by the districts for school 
			facility purposes outlined in the School Code portion of the 
			Illinois Compiled Statutes. Distributions are based on housing and 
			enrollment numbers that school officials reported to the Illinois 
			State Board of Education in the fall of 2012. The funds received will be distributed to the school 
			districts on or before 
			Feb. 5. State law directs regional education offices to distribute these 
			funds and allows the offices to hold the funds in their accounts for 
			up to 30 days. School districts maintaining agreements with Regional 
			Office of Education 38 permit the office to keep interest earned on 
			the funds during that time. Interest accrued will be used to provide 
			services to the school districts in the region, including the 
			additional work and inspections resulting from expected 
			construction, renovation and maintenance projects. The school 
			districts receive a report on how much interest money is earned and 
			how it is being spent. When no agreement is present, funds for that 
			particular district are deposited in a non-interest-bearing account 
			until distribution.
