How is a charter authorizing entity compensated for the costs of oversight?
A charter authorizing entity may charge a charter school for supervisorial oversight fees for the costs of performing the duties required by EC Section 47604.32. (Outside Source) EC Section 47613 (Outside Source) allows a charter authorizing entity to charge a charter school for the actual costs of supervisorial oversight, not to exceed one percent of the revenue of the charter school. However, if the charter authorizing entity provides substantially rent-free facilities for use by the charter school, the charter authorizing entity may charge for the actual costs of supervisorial oversight, not to exceed three percent of the revenue of the charter school. For purposes of calculating the oversight fee, revenue is defined as general-purpose entitlement and categorical block grant funding.
