HB2664 is a bill that amends Arizona Revised Statutes section 13-3411, relating to drug offenses. The bill expands the prohibition of the sale, transfer, possession, or use of marijuana to include cannabis in any form or medium within a drug-free school zone. It also specifies that the one-year increase in penalties for violations in drug-free school zones applies to corresponding offenses under criminal statute, in accordance with the Smart and Safe Arizona Act. The bill defines "cannabis" and "marijuana" and clarifies that "person" means any individual regardless of age or attendance at a school. Technical and conforming changes are made, and the bill is set to become effective on the general effective date.

The bill modifies the current law by including cannabis in the list of substances prohibited in drug-free school zones and by clarifying the increased penalties for such violations. It also makes a technical change to the fine requirement, replacing "two thousand dollars" with "$2,000," and updates the language for requesting school records from "upon" to "on" written request by a magistrate. The bill provides definitions for "cannabis," "marijuana," and "person" to ensure clarity in the application of the law.
