Key amendments include changes to the provisions regarding the Secretary of the Department of Parks, Heritage, and Tourism, allowing department employees to provide golf lessons at department golf courses under specific conditions, such as being a Class A member or apprentice of the Professional Golfers' Association or the Ladies Professional Golf Association. Additionally, the definition of "eligible company" under the Arkansas Tourism Development Act is clarified, specifying investment thresholds for tourism attraction projects in high-unemployment counties and other counties.

Further amendments involve updating the selection process for the Arkansas Great Places Program, changing the selection timeline to every even-numbered year and repealing outdated language regarding the selection of eligible organizations. The bill also includes a section that clarifies the legislative intent, ensuring that the enactment of this act does not conflict with any acts passed during the regular session of the Ninety-Fifth General Assembly.
