The bill amends 11 O.S. 2021, Section 43-106, to introduce additional notice requirements for proposed zoning changes and reclassifications, particularly concerning charter schools. It specifies that charter schools, after acquiring a building not currently zoned for educational use, must submit a site plan to the relevant municipal authority. This site plan must demonstrate the intention to use the building as a charter school for at least five years and outline any necessary alterations to facilitate this purpose. The municipal governing body is then required to approve or disapprove the plan, providing a written explanation for any disapproval.

Additionally, the bill provides an exemption for businesses or entities that may be affected by distance restrictions to schools if a charter school is approved under this act. This means that such businesses will not be considered in violation of distance requirements due to the establishment of a charter school, as long as they remain operational at their current location. The act is set to become effective on November 1, 2025.
