Bill > HB423

This bill establishes new protections for motorsports racing facilities by defining "area of the racing facility" as a five-mile radius around the track and its associated grounds, and "racing facility" as the designated area where competitive vehicle and motorsport races occur. It grants these facilities civil immunity, meaning they cannot be sued for nuisance or for "taking" (essentially, causing a situation that amounts to the government taking private property) by surrounding property owners if the racing facility was legally built before the property owner bought their land or constructed any buildings within that five-mile radius. This immunity applies even if the facility changes its size, scope, technology, or type of racing, as long as these changes are lawful, and the bill declares an emergency to allow these protections to take effect immediately.
