LOCAL GOVERNMENT: Provides relative to training requirements for local government officials
HB 688 amends a bill regarding training requirements for local government officials by changing the language from "Any association or group" to "Associations and groups." This specific textual adjustment clarifies the scope of organizations that must comply with the training mandates outlined in the legislation. The change does not alter the core policy of requiring training but ensures precise terminology in the statute.
