AI Summary
This bill prohibits any local government or its agency from requiring a license or permit for a business that is operated on an occasional basis (up to 84 days per year) by a minor (a person under the age of 18). The bill defines "business" as any enterprise carried on for the purpose of gain or economic profit, excluding the act of employees rendering services to employers. The bill also allows local governments to enact and enforce laws under their general police power regarding the manner in which a minor's business may be conducted, except for the requirement to obtain a permit or license. The bill declares that these matters are of statewide concern, and encourages minor entrepreneurs to understand that they will need to fully comply with the existing regulatory and legal environment to successfully compete as adults in the business world.
