Summary
The bill requires agritourism operators to meet specific fire safety rules for enclosed structures, such as exits, signage, extinguishers, alarms and evacuation plans. It applies to businesses that host events or have permanent facilities, while leaving open‑air structures like gazebos exempt. The goal is to protect visitors without changing the agricultural classification of the property.
