SB449,1,3 1An Act to amend 20.455 (2) (f), 118.07 (4) (cf), 165.28 (2) and 165.88 (3) (b); and
2to create 165.88 (3m) of the statutes; relating to: grants to schools to provide
3critical incident mapping data to law enforcement agencies.
Analysis by the Legislative Reference Bureau
Current law requires each school board and the governing body of each private
school to have in effect a school safety plan. Current law also requires a school board
and a governing body of a private school to submit a copy of the most recent
blueprints of the school to each local law enforcement agency with jurisdiction over
the school and to the office of school safety in the Department of Justice. This bill
changes the requirement so that the school board or governing body may provide
critical incident mapping data instead of blueprints.
This bill requires DOJ to award grants to school districts and private schools
to assist them in submitting critical incident mapping data. The bill requires schools
to apply for the grants jointly with a local law enforcement agency with jurisdiction
over the school. Grant moneys awarded must be used for site-specific critical
incident mapping data to enhance security and increase situational awareness for
first responders. The bill requires that mapping data created with grant money must
be compatible with platforms and applications used by local, state, and federal public
safety officials and must include information to best assist first responders in an
emergency, such as building numbers, floors, or room numbers.

For further information see the state and local fiscal estimate, which will be
printed as an appendix to this bill.
