Relating to: exempting certain farm owners from campground licensing.
SB 415 exempts qualifying farm owners from needing a campground license to operate small-scale camping on their agricultural land. It directly affects farmers who run campgrounds on their own property, limiting exemptions to farms with only one campground containing three or fewer campsites. The bill defines "farm" as land primarily used for agriculture, and specifies that only farms meeting these criteria can operate without a license under existing campground regulations. This change simplifies licensing for small, farm-based camping operations while maintaining regulatory oversight for larger or commercial campgrounds.
