Reps. Bradley and Erickson propose the following amendment (LC-4649.WAB0002H):

Amend the bill, as and if amended, SECTION 1, by striking Section 59-19-275 and inserting:

 Section 59-19-275. Each public school district with more than fifteen thousand students may use the services of personnel who are armed or delegated arrest authority to work on the premises of the district to promote safety and security on the premises, provided the district shall obtain proprietary security business licensure as provided in Section 40-18-60 and Section 40-18-80 and otherwise complies with the applicable requirements of those sections. The provisions of this section do not affect any requirement that a school district use the services of a school resource officer as provided by law. A school district by obtaining a proprietary security business license may enhance school security and safety but shall not supplant the use of school resource officer in a school.
