Code

are
amended
to
read
as
follows:
1
b.
Upon
receipt
of
a
statement
of
necessity,
the
department
2
shall
issue
the
driver’s
license
provided
the
applicant
is
3
otherwise
eligible
for
issuance
of
the
license.
The
fact
that
4
the
applicant
resides
at
a
distance
less
than
one
mile
from
the
5
applicant’s
school
of
enrollment
is
prima
facie
evidence
of
6
the
nonexistence
of
necessity
for
the
issuance
of
a
license.
7
However,
the
distance
between
the
applicant’s
residence
and
8
school
of
enrollment
shall
not
be
considered
if
the
applicant
9
resides
on
a
farm
or
is
employed
for
compensation
on
a
farm.
10
c.
The
school
shall
develop
and
adopt
a
policy
establishing
11
the
criteria
that
the
school
shall
use
to
approve
or
deny
12
certification
that
a
need
exists
for
a
license.
The
adopted
13
policy
must
require
the
school
to
approve
certification
that
14
a
need
exists
for
a
license
for
a
student
who
participates
in
15
an
extracurricular
activity,
resides
on
a
farm,
is
employed
16
for
compensation
on
a
farm
in
this
state,
or
is
otherwise
17
employed.
If
the
school
is
a
public
school,
the
policy
18
shall
be
developed
and
adopted
by
the
school
board.
If
the
19
school
is
an
accredited
nonpublic
school,
the
policy
shall
be
20
developed
and
adopted
according
to
procedures
determined
by
the
21
authorities
in
charge
of
the
accredited
nonpublic
school.
