Municipalities to jointly form an authority to open and operate law enforcement training facilities
House Bill 333 allows two or more municipalities to jointly establish a regional law enforcement training facility authority. This authority would be responsible for constructing, maintaining, and operating a shared training facility for law enforcement officers from participating municipalities.
The authority would be governed by a board of directors, including mayors and municipal council members, and would have powers to acquire property, enter contracts, and issue bonds to fund its operations. Its property and bonds would be exempt from state taxes. This bill aims to provide a collaborative framework for local governments to develop and manage regional law enforcement training resources.

MINOR
The bill was finalized for signature (Enrolled) after minor formatting updates. The most significant substantive change is the addition of a new provision allowing municipalities to donate or sell property to the authority without requiring a vote from local voters, streamlining the process for establishing the facility.
Scope change
The bill's scope remains focused on creating a regional law enforcement training facility, but the mechanism for acquiring property was expanded to include non-vote-based transfers.
ELIGIBILITY
Municipalities can now donate or sell property to the authority without holding an election or obtaining voter approval, removing a previous barrier to acquiring necessary land or assets.
TECHNICAL
The version number was updated from SLLSF55-2 to SLLSF55-3 to reflect the final enrolled status.
Minor formatting adjustments were made to align the text with standard enrolled bill conventions, including page headers and line numbering.
