Relating to: regulating trampoline parks, providing an exemption from emergency rule procedures, and granting rule-making authority. (FE)
SB 1049 requires commercial trampoline parks to obtain an annual license and maintain $1 million in liability insurance. It mandates safety standards including first aid/CPR-certified staff on-site with an AED, proper signage, injury reporting systems, and compliance with industry guidelines for equipment, staff training, and participant behavior. The bill exempts schools operating incidental playgrounds, training facilities (like gymnastics studios) with specific revenue or ratio requirements, and inflatable equipment used exclusively for exercise. These requirements directly affect trampoline park operators, while participants must follow posted safety rules regarding conduct and health conditions.
