adult incarceration contractors; public records
HB 2359 requires private prison contractors in Arizona to reimburse the state or local governments for emergency, public safety, or security services they receive. It also mandates that these contractors maintain complete, accurate records of all services provided. The bill classifies private incarceration contractors as "public bodies" under Arizona's public records law (Title 39), making their records subject to public access. This directly affects companies contracted by government entities to operate adult incarceration facilities.
