SB 2357 Mississippi Senate · 2026 Regular Session

Nuisances; limit causes of action against racing facilities or racetracks.

SB 2357 prevents property owners within a 5-mile zone around an existing racetrack from filing lawsuits claiming the racetrack causes nuisances (like noise or disturbances) if the racetrack was already operating when they bought or improved their property. It blocks such claims regardless of future changes to the racetrack's operations, as long as those changes are legal. The bill also stops local governments from passing rules that would restrict racetrack operations in these zones. However, racetracks must still follow all state and federal environmental and safety laws.
