The proposed bill, if enacted, would amend the definition of "contiguous" in section 32-2101 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which pertains to real estate. Currently, the definition excludes lots, parcels, or fractional interests that are separated by certain barriers, including public roads or highways. The bill would add that "contiguous" also includes lots, parcels, or fractional interests separated by a private road or street, thereby broadening the scope of what is considered contiguous.

Additionally, the bill specifies that the definition of "contiguous" would continue to exclude lots, parcels, or fractional interests separated by public roads or highways that meet specific criteria, such as being established or maintained by the state or federal government. The changes aim to clarify the definition while making conforming adjustments to the existing statute.
