SB 1306 Arizona Senate · 56th Legislature - Second Regular Session

ABOR; administrative powers; delegation; limitation

This bill amends the Arizona Revised Statutes to clarify and expand the administrative powers of the Arizona Board of Regents over the state's universities. It allows the board to formally delegate specific governance and operational authority to university presidents, committees, or other designated entities, while retaining the power to rescind these delegations at any time. The legislation also establishes new requirements for setting tuition and fees, including mandatory public hearings, advance notice of proposed increases, and a public roll-call vote on final decisions. Additionally, the bill updates policies regarding student admission, specifically ensuring fair access for veterans and students from public and charter schools, and clarifies how tuition revenue must be managed and reported.
