SB1722 is a bill that proposes to amend the maximum duration of employment contracts for chancellors, vice chancellors, or presidents of community college districts in Arizona. The current law allows for employment contracts with these positions to have a duration of more than one year but not more than five years. The bill seeks to reduce the maximum length of these contracts from five years to three years.

The bill also specifies that the change in contract duration will apply to all employment contracts entered into after the effective date of the legislation. It includes a provision that ensures chancellors, vice chancellors, and presidents currently under contract will continue to serve until the expiration of their existing contracts. The bill makes technical changes and becomes effective on the general effective date.
