q2 · i? · review · r2
The authors' own review of all state charter statutes and relevant regulations identified the district impact assessments states require. The review found "16 states with district impact provisions in statute or regulation" organized into four primary categories of impact.
"For context, we reviewed all state charter statutes and relevant regulations to better understand the types of district impact assessments that states require. Of 16 states with district impact provisions in statute or regulation, we found that states had four primary categories of impact: fiscal, demographic, programmatic, and general."
Discussion¶
Related Claims¶
- California's AB 1505 community interest provision assesses charter applications almost exclusively in terms of district impact and does not appear to include community input on unmet needs — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- Three of 16 states require assessment of demographic impact on segregation or desegregation orders, six require programmatic impact assessment, and four require only a general impact assessment — a narrower finding that bears on this claim
- State community engagement requirements such as public hearings can often be satisfied without obtaining meaningful community input, and collecting feedback differs from proactively assessing community needs — related
