Maddy summaryThis bill requires certain public water systems (serving at least 15 year-round residents or 25 regularly) to identify lead service lines connecting water mains to properties. It defines "lead service line" broadly, including galvanized pipes downstream of lead lines or where lead connectors are used. Water systems must obtain property owner or occupant consent for free inspections, with a 30-day response window; if consent isn't received, occupants may provide consent. Inspections must occur within 60 days of consent, focusing solely on identification, not removal, of lead service lines.

Maddy summaryThis bill automatically removes certain criminal records for minors who have no prior arrests after their case is closed. Specifically, it requires the expungement (removal from public records) of photographs, fingerprints, palmprints, and arrest records related to a case involving a minor who was never convicted. The law applies only to minors defined as "juvenile offenders" under existing law, and only if they have no previous arrest history. This change ensures eligible minors are not burdened by past minor legal issues when seeking jobs, education, or other opportunities.
