HB 1707 Amendment No. 7

HB 1707 ensures cities cannot discriminate against charter schools by unfairly subjecting them to certain fees or zoning or permitting rules. Amendment No. 7 would have inhibited charter schools by requiring that, if a new charter school campus wants to open, the school board of the school district in which the charter campus would be located must hold an election to decide whether the charter campus may open.YCT supports increasing parental choice in education.
