Provides that a governing body shall make available for lease or purchase to any charter school any vacant or unused school building owned by the school corporation or any other entity that is related in any way to, or created by, the school corporation or the governing body, including a building corporation. (Current law provides that a governing body shall make available for lease or purchase to any charter school any vacant or unused school building owned by the school corporation).

Requires the department to notify a school corporation of a charter school's intent to purchase or lease a vacant school building within 30 days of receiving a written notification from a charter school. Provides that if the department does not receive a qualified objection from a charter school or statewide organization representing charter schools, the governing body may dispose of the vacant or unused school building in any lawful manner.
