The bill amends existing laws to prohibit counties, cities, and towns from requiring a license, permit, or other authorization for businesses operated by minors under specific conditions. It introduces new legal language stating that no license, permit, or authorization shall be required for a business that is operated occasionally by an individual who has not yet reached the age of eighteen. The term "occasionally" is defined to mean that the business is not a habitual or regular activity of the operator.
Additionally, the bill specifies that this exemption applies to both city and county regulations, ensuring uniformity in the treatment of minor-operated businesses across different jurisdictions. The effective date for this legislation is set for July 1, 2025.
