| OH | Signed into law 12/2006 | P-12 | From fiscal notes: Sub. H.B. 422 of the 126th General Assembly required that the Attorney General post a copy of the blueprint for each school building on the Ohio Law Enforcement Gateway. The bill, instead, requires that the Attorney General post a floor plan for each school building. According to the Office of the Attorney General, additional equipment would most likely be needed to accommodate the large size of building blueprints in order to transform the blueprints into electronic documents suitable for posting on the Gateway. The Office estimates the potential one-time cost of this equipment to be in the range of approximately $100,000 to $300,000. The changes made by the bill will eliminate this potential cost.

| OH | Signed into law 05/2006 | P-12 | Requires community schools and chartered nonpublic schools to adopt school safety plans in the same manner as school districts; exempts school safety plans and school building blueprints from public records law; requires all public and nonpublic schools to conduct at least one school safety drill annually; increases the fine for failure to conduct any required drill to one thousand dollars. Requires each school safety plan to be updated every three years or whenever a major modification to the school building necessitates changes in the plan's procedures. Requires that a copy of the building blueprint of each public and chartered nonpublic school (along with the school safety plan, as under current law) be filed with each law enforcement agency that has jurisdiction over the school.
