SB 1471 Arizona Senate · 57th Legislature - Second Regular Session

school mapping data; requirements; accessibility

SB 1471 establishes a standardized school mapping data program in Arizona to improve emergency response on school campuses. It requires public K-12 schools to develop and annually update detailed digital maps - including floor plans, hazard locations, and utility sites - compatible with public safety systems, free for emergency agencies to access. Schools may apply for grants from a new state fund to cover mapping costs, and the data is exempt from public disclosure under Arizona law. The bill directly affects all Arizona public schools and emergency response agencies by mandating accessible, accurate campus mapping while restricting public access to the maps.
