Prohibiting sexually violent predators from being placed in less restrictive alternatives located in areas with a high concentration of children.

Summary

The bill requires that any court‑ordered, less‑restrictive placement for a civilly committed sexually violent predator be located where adults outnumber children at least three to one within a 500‑foot radius, and it excludes placements in the community protection program. It applies to the Department of Social and Health Services, counties and facilities that manage conditional‑release housing. The aim is to keep children away from sites where predators might reside.
