This bill proposes 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 updates the language by replacing "which" with "that" for clarity and removing the term "wash house" while adding "washhouse" for consistency. Additionally, it maintains the definition of public places where these items may be used, ensuring that the law remains applicable to barber shops, public lavatories, and other public areas. Overall, the changes aim to modernize the statute while preserving its original intent.
