Arizona SB1271 prohibits municipalities from penalizing businesses based on the frequency or value of emergency service requests.

Arizona SB1271 amends the state's statutes to prohibit municipalities from imposing fines or penalties on businesses for the number or frequency of emergency service requests, or the monetary value of damaged or stolen property, if the requests are deemed malicious, knowingly false, or frivolous. This prohibition applies only if the municipality has previously notified the business in writing about the nature of prior requests. The bill aims to protect businesses from unfair penalties related to emergency service requests.
