Bill > SB1265

This bill amends Arizona law to require that inspections and testing of weights, measures, and commercial devices used for food items be conducted every two years, and it also modifies the civil penalty structure for violations of weights and measures laws, establishing a minimum penalty of $100 for a first offense and a higher penalty for subsequent violations within a 30-day period, with a maximum of $10,000 for any 30-day period at a business location or for a representative, and a total cap of $50,000 per 30-day period, while also appropriating $250,000 and four full-time equivalent positions to the Arizona Department of Agriculture for fiscal year 2026-2027 to support these changes, with the appropriation exempt from lapsing.
