 STATE OF NEW YORK
 ________________________________________________________________________

 2025-2026 Regular Sessions

 IN SENATE

 April 16, 2025
 ___________

 Introduced by Sen. HOYLMAN-SIGAL -- read twice and ordered printed, and
 when printed to be committed to the Committee on Education

 AN ACT to amend the education law, in relation to relocation of a char-
 ter school

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Subdivision 1 of section 2857 of the education law, as
 2 amended by section 7 of part D-2 of chapter 57 of the laws of 2007, is
 3 amended to read as follows:
 4 1. The board of regents shall distribute information announcing the
 5 availability of the charter school process described in this article to
 6 each local school district and public postsecondary educational institu-
 7 tion. At each significant stage of the chartering process, the charter
 8 entity and the board of regents shall provide appropriate notification
 9 to the school district in which the charter school is located and to
 10 public and nonpublic schools in the same geographic area as the proposed
 11 charter school. Such notification shall be provided by each charter
 12 entity within thirty days of its receipt of an application for formation
 13 of a new charter school or for renewal of an existing charter school,
 14 and at least forty-five days prior to initial approval of the charter
 15 application by the charter entity. Prior to the issuance, revision, or
 16 renewal of a charter, the school district in which the charter school is
 17 located shall hold a public hearing to solicit comments from the commu-
 18 nity in connection with the foregoing. Such hearing shall be held within
 19 the community potentially impacted by the proposed charter school. When
 20 a revision involves the relocation of a charter school to a different
 21 school district, or, in a city with a population of one million or more,
 22 to a different community education council district, the proposed new
 23 school district or community education council district shall also hold
 24 such hearing. In addition, such school districts shall be given an
 25 opportunity to comment on the proposed charter to the charter entity and

 EXPLANATION--Matter in italics (underscored) is new; matter in brackets
 [ ] is old law to be omitted.

 5 have become a law.
