MPS (Milwaukee Public Schools) holding on to 24 vacant buildings in order to keep them out of the hands of charter schools:
Milwaukee stonewalling sales of unused schools, law firm says:

“Our report shows that MPS is preventing numerous charter schools and private schools in the choice program from purchasing empty, unused school buildings. In doing so, they are directly blocking thousands of children from attending a nearby, high-performing school,” said C.J. Szafir, WILL’s education policy director in a statement released Thursday.
“And the City – by ignoring its power to sell these buildings under Act 17 – is equally culpable.”
An MPS official charges WILL with making false or misleading claims, and tells Wisconsin Reporter the law does not require MPS to sell buildings it has legitimate plans for.
