Summary
The bill requires anyone on Kentucky’s sex‑offender registry to stay at least 1,000 feet from schools, playgrounds and licensed day‑care centers if they were already registered, and at least 3,000 feet if they become a registrant after the law takes effect. It also bans registrants from being on, loitering at, or operating a mobile business within 1,000 feet of those sites, as well as public swimming pools and splash pads, unless they obtain written permission. Violations are a Class A misdemeanor for a first offense and a Class D felony for any subsequent offense.
