This bill amends Alaska's current law regarding the rental of the governor's mansion by adding a new section, AS 44.19.032. It stipulates that the Office of the Governor is permitted to rent the mansion on a short-term basis when the legislature is not in session and the governor has not made prior reservations. Additionally, if the legislature is called into a special session, any rental agreement during that time becomes unenforceable. The bill also mandates that the Office of the Governor establish regulations for the rental process and the associated fees.

The bill is designed to provide a structured approach to renting the governor's mansion while ensuring that it remains available for official use during legislative sessions. It is set to take effect immediately upon enactment, as specified in Section 2.
