Summary

The bill permits private schools to occupy buildings owned by libraries, churches, colleges and similar entities, and allows schools with 150 or fewer students to operate in commercial or mixed‑use districts without needing a rezoning or special exception. Local governments may require traffic and pedestrian safety measures, but schools can replace those requirements with a traffic study, and fire‑safety compliance is met through a specific evaluation system. It also gives schools the right to sue for injunctive relief if a local authority does not follow the rules.
