HB427 requires new classroom- or dormitory-building projects at public Alabama colleges and universities to include an Alabama Building Commission–approved safe space or hallway.
For any new building contracted for construction that contains classrooms or dorm rooms, the contract must require an Alabama Building Commission–approved safe space or hallway. The State Department of Postsecondary Education and the boards of trustees of four-year institutions must coordinate with the Alabama Building Commission to develop, promulgate, and enforce rules to implement this requirement. The act expresses that constitutionally created boards of trustees are expected to comply with the requirement. The act becomes effective on the first day of the third month after governor approval (or when it otherwise becomes law).
