HB161

Kentucky HB161 amends public school facilities law to address damage to running tracks and pet access.

Kentucky HB161 amends the public school facilities law to establish penalties for damaging school running tracks and for bringing pets onto these tracks. Damaging a running track can result in a Class A misdemeanor for the first offense and a Class D felony for subsequent offenses. Bringing pets onto the track or surrounding area results in a civil fine. School districts must allow public access to running tracks during nonschool hours unless school-sponsored activities are occurring.
