The bill amends Florida Statutes to enhance criminal penalties for trespassing on properties maintained or secured by law enforcement, as well as to address unauthorized access to venues during large ticketed events. Specifically, it introduces a new provision under section 810.09, making it a felony of the third degree for individuals to trespass on designated restricted sites that are legally posted as such by law enforcement. The required notice must clearly indicate that trespassing on the property constitutes a felony.

Additionally, the bill modifies section 871.05 to prohibit individuals from willfully entering or remaining in a venue during ticketed events with an attendance exceeding 5,000 persons without proper authorization. Violations of this provision will also be classified as a felony of the third degree. The bill aims to strengthen the legal framework surrounding trespassing and unauthorized access to ensure the safety and security of public events and law enforcement properties.
