MINOR
The bill was amended to add committee discharge and recommitment instructions, change 'districts' to 'schools' in one provision, and update the legislative document tracking number. These are primarily procedural and technical adjustments rather than substantive policy changes.
TECHNICAL

Added committee discharge and recommitment language to the bill introduction section, indicating procedural movement through the legislative process.

Changed 'districts' to 'schools' in the survey requirements section, clarifying that the survey will ask about individual school spaces rather than district-level provisions.

Updated the legislative document tracking number from LBD13091-09-5 to LBD13091-11-5, reflecting the amendment version.
