Bill Summary

A bill for an act relating to commerce; requiring places of entertainment to provide access to potable water at events; proposing coding for new law in Minnesota Statutes, chapter 325F.

AI Summary

This bill requires places of entertainment in Minnesota to provide access to potable water (safe drinking water) during events through one of three methods: (1) offering free bottled water to attendees, (2) allowing attendees to bring their own bottled water into the venue, or (3) permitting attendees to bring an empty water bottle and providing a way for them to fill it with potable water. The bill defines "entertainment" and "place of entertainment" by referencing existing definitions in Minnesota Statutes section 325F.676, which likely covers venues like concert halls, sports arenas, theaters, and similar event spaces. By mandating water access, the bill aims to ensure that event attendees can stay hydrated without additional cost or inconvenience, potentially addressing public health and consumer welfare concerns during entertainment events.
