Bill Summary
AN ACT amending sections 12-991, 13-2908 and 13-2917, Arizona Revised Statutes; relating to public and private nuisances.
AI Summary
This bill amends existing Arizona law to explicitly include excessive marijuana smoke and odor as a nuisance. It clarifies that "crime" under the law now encompasses the creation of such smoke and odor, making it easier to address situations where marijuana smoke negatively impacts others. The bill also establishes a presumption that excessive marijuana smoke and odor are injurious to health, offensive to the senses, and interfere with the comfortable enjoyment of life and property, thereby classifying them as public nuisances. This means that creating excessive marijuana smoke and odor can be considered a criminal nuisance and a public nuisance, subject to legal action and penalties.
