A 10617 New York Assembly · 2025 Regular Session

Extends the amount of time for the board of regents to approve and issue a charter that has been resubmitted by a charter entity

This bill extends the deadline for the Board of Regents to approve or issue a charter after a charter entity resubmits it following a previous rejection. Previously, the Board had 30 days to act on a resubmitted charter, but this legislation increases that timeframe to 90 days. The change applies specifically to charter schools that have already had their charter proposals returned and are now resubmitting them with modifications or without changes. By lengthening the review period, the bill gives the Board more time to evaluate resubmitted charter applications before they are automatically approved if no decision is made within the deadline.
