Analysis
This motion authorizes the Transcenter for Youth School to operate a Milwaukee Common Council charter school, as recommended by the Charter School Review Committee.  
Body
Whereas, The state charter school statute, s. 118.40, Wis. Stats., and the charter school ordinance, ch. 330, Code of Ordinances, authorize the Common Council to grant authority to operate a Milwaukee Common Council charter school to applicants who meet the requirements of the statute and ordinance; and
 
Whereas, Transcenter for Youth School has applied to operate a Milwaukee Common Council charter school as authorized under the Milwaukee charter school ordinance, ch. 330, Code of Ordinances, and the Wisconsin charter school statute, s. 118.40, Wis. Stats.; and
 
Whereas, The Charter School Review Committee has made a written positive finding for the applicant for all factors described under s. 330-15, Code of Ordinances, and has recommended that the Common Council grant the application to operate a Milwaukee Common Council charter school; now, therefore
 
It is moved, By the Common Council of the City of Milwaukee, that the Common Council approves the Charter School Review Committee's recommendation and authorizes the Transcenter for Youth School to operate a Milwaukee Common Council charter school beginning with the 2012-2013 school year.
