The proposed bill seeks to amend section 36-605 of the Arizona Revised Statutes, specifically addressing the provision of common towels and drinking cups in public settings. Under current law, a person who knowingly provides or furnishes a common towel or drinking cup that may be used by more than one person in various public places is guilty of a petty offense.
The bill introduces new language that clarifies the types of establishments involved by replacing "wash house" with "washhouse" and maintains the reference to public lavatories and other public places. Additionally, it modifies the phrasing from "which" to "that" for grammatical consistency. Overall, the bill updates the statute to ensure clarity while retaining the original intent of the law.
