BE IT ENACTED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF MINNESOTA:

Section 1.

Minnesota Statutes 2012, section 15.985, is amended to read:

15.985 ADVISORY INSPECTIONS.

(a) Upon the voluntary request of a person to a state agency for an advisory inspection
for the purpose of complying with state law, the agency must, except as provided in
paragraphs (f) and (g), conduct an advisory inspection. An agency is not required to
conduct an advisory inspection if the agency has a regularly scheduled inspection that
would occur within 90 days after the request for the advisory inspection, or if before
an advisory inspection is requested, the agency has notified the person that it will be
conducting an inspection within 45 days. If an advisory inspection results in findings that
potentially could make a person subject to a fine or other penalty imposed by the agency, the
agency must notify the person in writing of those findings within ten days of the inspection.

(1) Except as provided in clause (2), if within 60 days of receiving notice, the person
notifies the agency that it has corrected the situation that made the person potentially
subject to the fine or penalty, and the agency later determines that the situation is
corrected, the agency may not impose a fine or penalty as a result of the findings in the
advisory inspection.

(2) For violations of chapter 177, if the person notifies the agency within the time
period for remedying violations required under the applicable section of chapter 177 that it
has corrected the situation that made the person potentially subject to the fine or penalty,
and the agency later determines that the situation is corrected, the agency may not impose
a fine or penalty as a result of the finding in the advisory inspection.

(3) A person may not request more than one advisory inspection from the same
agency in a calendar year. A person may not request an advisory inspection after an
inspection resulting in a fine or other penalty has been determined and the violator notified
of the amount to be paid, until fines or penalties have been paid or settled.

(b) For purposes of this section:

(1) "inspection" includes an examination of real or personal property or an audit or
other examination of financial or other documents;

(2) "penalty" includes a civil or administrative fine or other financial sanction;

(3) "person" includes a real person and businesses, including corporations,
partnerships, limited liability companies, and unincorporated associations; and

(4) "state agency" means a department, agency, board, commission, constitutional
office, or other group in the executive branch of state government.

(c) If an agency revises, amends, extends, or adds additional violations to a notice,
the person has 60 days from the date of those changes to correct the situation without fine
or penalty. For violations of chapter 177, the person has the time period for remedying
violations under the applicable section of chapter 177 to correct the situation without
fine or penalty.

(d) An agency conducting an inspection under this section may impose and collect
from the person requesting the inspection a fee equal to the costs incurred by the agency
related to the inspection. Fees under this section shall be considered charges for goods
and services provided for the direct and primary use of a private individual, business, or
other entity under section 16A.1283, paragraph (b), clause (3). Fee revenue collected
under this section must be deposited in an appropriate fund other than the general fund
and is appropriated from that fund to the agency collecting the fee for the purpose of
conducting inspections under this section.

(e) Nothing in this section shall prohibit or interfere with an agency offering similar
programs that allow independent audits or inspections, including the environmental
improvement program under chapter 114C. If a person conducts a self-audit under chapter
114C, the terms and conditions of this section do not apply. For advisory inspections
conducted by the Pollution Control Agency, terms and conditions of sections 114C.20 to
deleted text begin 144C.28 deleted text end new text begin 114C.28 new text end shall be used instead of those in paragraphs (a) to (c) and (g).

(f) If agency staff resources are limited, an agency must give higher priority to
the agency's regular inspections over advisory inspections under this section. Insofar as
conducting advisory inspections reduces an agency's costs, the savings must be reflected
in the charges for advisory inspections. Before hiring additional staff complement for
purposes of this section, an agency must report to the chairs and ranking minority members
of the legislative budget committees with jurisdiction over the agency documenting: (1)
the demand for advisory inspections and why additional staff complement is needed to
meet the demand; and (2) that the revenue generated by advisory inspections will cover the
expenses of the additional staff complement. If a person requests an advisory inspection,
but the agency does not have staff resources necessary to conduct the advisory inspection
before a regular inspection is conducted, and the regular inspection results in findings that
could make a person subject to a fine or penalty, the agency must take into account the
person's request for an advisory inspection and the person's desire to take corrective action
before taking any enforcement action against the person.

(g) This section does not apply to:

(1) criminal penalties;

(2) situations in which implementation of this section is prohibited by federal
law or would result in loss of federal funding or in other federal sanctions or in which
implementation would interfere with multistate agreements, international agreements, or
agreements between state and federal regulatory agencies;

(3) conduct constituting fraud;

(4) violations in a manner that endangers human life or presents significant risk of
major injury or severe emotional harm to humans;

(5) violations that are part of a pattern that has occurred repeatedly and shows
willful intent;

(6) violations for which it may be demonstrated that the alternative inspections
process is being used to avoid enforcement;

(7) violations that occur within three years of violating an applicable law;

(8) the Department of Revenue;

(9) the Workers' Compensation Division at the Department of Labor and Industry;

(10) violations of vehicle size weight limits under sections 169.80 to 169.88;

(11) commercial motor vehicle inspections under section 169.781 and motor carrier
regulations under chapter 221;

(12) the Dairy and Food Inspection Division of the Department of Agriculture, if the
division provides free inspections similar to those under this section;

(13) state inspections or surveys of hospitals, nursing homes, outpatient surgical
centers, supervised living facilities, board and lodging with special services, home care,
housing with services and assisted living settings, hospice, and supplemental nursing
services agencies;

(14) examinations of health maintenance organizations or county-based purchasing
entities regulated under chapter 62D;

(15) special transportation services under section 174.30; and

(16) entities regulated by the Department of Commerce's Financial Institutions and
Insurance Divisions for purposes of regulatory requirements of those divisions.

If an agency determines that this section does not apply due to situations specified in
clause (2), the agency must report the basis for that determination to the chairs and ranking
minority members of the legislative committees with jurisdiction over the agency.

(h) An agency may terminate an advisory inspection and proceed as if an inspection
were a regular inspection if, in the process of conducting an advisory inspection, the
agency finds a situation that the agency determines: could lead to criminal penalties;
endangers human life or presents significant risk of major injury or severe emotional
harm to humans; presents a severe and imminent threat to animals, food, feed, crops,
commodities, or the environment; or evidences a pattern of willful violations.

Minnesota Statutes 2012, section 124D.10, subdivision 4, as
amended by 2013 H.F. No. 630, article 4, section 1, if enacted, is amended to read:

Subd. 4.

Formation of school.

(a) An authorizer, after receiving an application from
a school developer, may charter a licensed teacher under section 122A.18, subdivision
1, or a group of individuals that includes one or more licensed teachers under section
122A.18, subdivision 1, to operate a school subject to the commissioner's approval of the
authorizer's affidavit under paragraph (b). The school must be organized and operated as a
nonprofit corporation under chapter 317A and the provisions under the applicable chapter
shall apply to the school except as provided in this section.

Notwithstanding sections 465.717 and 465.719, a school district, subject to this
section and section 124D.11, may create a corporation for the purpose of establishing a
charter school.

(b) Before the operators may establish and operate a school, the authorizer must file
an affidavit with the commissioner stating its intent to charter a school. An authorizer
must file a separate affidavit for each school it intends to charter. The affidavit must state
the terms and conditions under which the authorizer would charter a school and how the
authorizer intends to oversee the fiscal and student performance of the charter school and to
comply with the terms of the written contract between the authorizer and the charter school
board of directors under subdivision 6. The commissioner must approve or disapprove the
authorizer's affidavit within 60 business days of receipt of the affidavit. If the commissioner
disapproves the affidavit, the commissioner shall notify the authorizer of the deficiencies
in the affidavit and the authorizer then has 20 business days to address the deficiencies.
If the authorizer does not address deficiencies to the commissioner's satisfaction, the
commissioner's disapproval is final. Failure to obtain commissioner approval precludes an
authorizer from chartering the school that is the subject of this affidavit.

(c) The authorizer may prevent an approved charter school from opening for
operation if, among other grounds, the charter school violates this section or does not meet
the ready-to-open standards that are part of the authorizer's oversight and evaluation
process or are stipulated in the charter school contract.

(d) The operators authorized to organize and operate a school, before entering into
a contract or other agreement for professional or other services, goods, or facilities,
must incorporate as a nonprofit corporation under chapter 317A and must establish a
board of directors composed of at least five members who are not related parties until a
timely election for members of the ongoing charter school board of directors is held
according to the school's articles and bylaws under paragraph (f). A charter school board
of directors must be composed of at least five members who are not related parties.
Staff members employed at the school, including teachers providing instruction under a
contract with a cooperative, members of the board of directors, and all parents or legal
guardians of children enrolled in the school are the voters eligible to elect the members
of the school's board of directors. A charter school must notify eligible voters of the
school board election dates at least 30 days before the election. Board of director meetings
must comply with chapter 13D.

(e) A charter school shall publish and maintain on the school's official Web site: (1)
the minutes of meetings of the board of directors, and of members and committees having
any board-delegated authority, for at least one calendar year from the date of publication;
(2) directory information for members of the board of directors and committees having
board-delegated authority; and (3) identifying and contact information for the school's
authorizer. Identifying and contact information for the school's authorizer must be
included in other school materials made available to the public. Upon request of an
individual, the charter school must also make available in a timely fashion financial
statements showing all operations and transactions affecting income, surplus, and deficit
during the school's last annual accounting period; and a balance sheet summarizing assets
and liabilities on the closing date of the accounting period. A charter school also must
include that same information about its authorizer in other school materials that it makes
available to the public.

(f) Every charter school board member shall attend annual training throughout the
member's term on the board. All new board members shall attend initial training on
the board's role and responsibilities, employment policies and practices, and financial
management. A new board member who does not begin the required initial training within
six months after being seated and complete that training within 12 months of being seated
on the board is automatically ineligible to continue to serve as a board member. The
school shall include in its annual report the training attended by each board member
during the previous year.

(g) The ongoing board must be elected before the school completes its third year of
operation. Board elections must be held during the school year but may not be conducted
on days when the school is closed for holidays, breaks, or vacations. The charter school
board of directors shall be composed of at least five nonrelated members and include: (i)
at least one licensed teacher employed as a teacher at the school or providing instruction
under contract between the charter school and a cooperative; (ii) at least one parent or
legal guardian of a student enrolled in the charter school who is not an employee of
the charter school; and (iii) at least one interested community member who resides in
Minnesota and is not employed by the charter school and does not have a child enrolled
in the school. The board may include a majority of teachers described in this paragraph
or parents or community members, or it may have no clear majority. The chief financial
officer and the chief administrator may only serve as ex-officio nonvoting board members.
No charter school employees shall serve on the board other than teachers under item (i).
Contractors providing facilities, goods, or services to a charter school shall not serve on
the board of directors of the charter school. Board bylaws shall outline the process and
procedures for changing the board's governance structure, consistent with chapter 317A.
A board may change its governance structure only:

(1) by a majority vote of the board of directors and a majority vote of the licensed
teachers employed by the school as teachers, including licensed teachers providing
instruction under a contract between the school and a cooperative; and

(2) with the authorizer's approval.

Any change in board governance structure must conform with the composition of
the board established under this paragraph.

(h) The granting or renewal of a charter by an authorizer must not be conditioned
upon the bargaining unit status of the employees of the school.

(i) The granting or renewal of a charter school by an authorizer must not be
contingent on the charter school being required to contract, lease, or purchase services
from the authorizer. Any potential contract new text begin , lease, new text end or purchase of service from an
authorizer must be disclosed to the commissioner, accepted through an open bidding
process, and be a separate contract from the charter contract. The school must document
the open bidding process. An authorizer must not enter into a contract to provide
management and financial services for a school that it authorizes, unless the school
documents that it received at least two competitive bids.

(j) An authorizer may permit the board of directors of a charter school to expand the
operation of the charter school to additional sites or grades at the school beyond those
described in the authorizer's original affidavit as approved by the commissioner only
after submitting a supplemental affidavit for approval to the commissioner in a form and
manner prescribed by the commissioner. The supplemental affidavit must document that:

(1) the proposed expansion plan demonstrates need and projected enrollment;

(2) the expansion is warranted, at a minimum, by longitudinal data demonstrating
students' improved academic performance and growth on statewide assessments under
chapter 120B;

(3) the charter school is financially sound and the financing it needs to implement
the proposed expansion exists; and

(4) the charter school has the governance structure and management capacity to
carry out its expansion.

(k) The commissioner shall have 30 business days to review and comment on the
supplemental affidavit. The commissioner shall notify the authorizer of any deficiencies in
the supplemental affidavit and the authorizer then has 20 business days to address, to the
commissioner's satisfaction, any deficiencies in the supplemental affidavit. The school
may not expand grades or add sites until the commissioner has approved the supplemental
affidavit. The commissioner's approval or disapproval of a supplemental affidavit is final.

of bar codes, radio-frequency identification tags, or similar mechanisms for tracking
compliance;

(3) evaluate the adequacy and effectiveness of the existing penalties and other
