If enacted, this bill would update current statutes by continuing the Arizona Exposition and State Fair Board for an additional eight years, extending its termination date to July 1, 2033. The bill would repeal the existing statute that governs the Board's termination (A.R.S. ยง 41-3025.03) and introduce new provisions that outline the Board's responsibilities, including maintaining state fairgrounds, conducting state fairs and events, and generating revenue to cover operational costs.

Additionally, the bill includes a retroactive provision that would make these changes effective from July 1, 2025. It specifies that the Board will be repealed on January 1, 2034, ensuring a clear timeline for its operations and oversight. Overall, the bill aims to enhance the Board's role in promoting state interests and managing fairground facilities while providing a structured timeline for its continuation and eventual dissolution.
