2017 Senate Bill 702

House Roll Call 5: Passed

To expand the definition of “deed restriction” in a <a href="http://www.michiganvotes.org/2017-SB-249">2017 law</a> that prohibits a school district or local government from refusing to sell property to a charter or private school, or from taking other actions designed to keep these potential conventional public school competitors from using property for a lawful educational purpose. The bill would close loopholes that cities and school districts have used to discriminate against charter schools.
