Plain-language summary

Beta

This bill would protect motorsports racing facilities from certain lawsuits filed by nearby property owners who moved in or built after the racing facility was already established. Specifically, it would remove the ability of those neighbors to sue a racing facility for being a nuisance if the facility existed before they purchased or developed their property. The emergency designation means it would take effect immediately upon becoming law. Who it may affect: owners and operators of motorsports racing facilities, and property owners who live or build near existing racing facilities.
