AI Summary
This bill creates a new section in the Kentucky Revised Statutes (KRS) Chapter 438 to prohibit the use of tobacco products, alternative nicotine products (such as e-cigarettes), and vapor products by students, school personnel, and visitors on all property owned, operated, leased, or contracted by a local board of education, including vehicles and during school-related activities. The bill requires local boards of education to implement this policy by July 1, 2020, including providing adequate notice and signage, and enforcing the policy. The bill also amends an existing law to remove the exception that allowed smoking in designated areas within school buildings and on school grounds. Local boards of education can opt-out of the policy within three years of the bill's effective date.
