Provides the Board of Regents with final approval authority over all proposed and renewed charter schools

This bill gives New York's Board of Regents final authority to approve or reject all new and renewed charter schools, directly affecting charter school applicants and operators. It requires charter entities to revise proposals based on Regents' feedback and resubmit them for final review, with the Regents having 30 days to act on resubmitted applications. If the Regents do not approve within 30 days, the charter is automatically approved. The bill also states that a charter cannot be approved by the applicant if the Regents recommend changes that remain unresolved. This changes the current process by making the Regents' approval the final step, not the applicant's decision.
