This bill proposes to repeal sections 9-500.38 and 11-269.16 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, which currently do not affect local governments' authority to enforce business licensing laws for scrap metal dealers. Additionally, it seeks to repeal Laws 2016, chapter 28, section 5. The bill amends section 44-1648 to clarify that the existing article does not apply to local licensing systems for scrap metal dealers that include background checks or identification and fingerprinting of the owners.

The current statute remains largely unchanged, maintaining local governments' power to enforce business licensing laws. However, the bill removes specific references to the repealed sections and updates the language to ensure clarity regarding the applicability of local licensing systems for scrap metal dealers.
