KS SB519

Cities and counties are prohibited from enforcing building codes, health and safety regulations, property maintenance rules, or permit/license/fee requirements against "nonpublic registered agritourism locations"

A "nonpublic registered agritourism location" is defined as a registered agritourism site where agricultural activity is the only activity conducted and visitors are permitted by specific invitation only (not open to the general public)

The exemption does not apply to locations that sell goods or services unrelated to on-site agricultural activity, sell merchandise not produced on-site, or rent space for private events unrelated to agritourism

The bill amends K.S.A. 2025 Supp. 32-1432 to clarify that invitation-only activities can qualify as agritourism activities under the existing agritourism protection act

Takes effect upon publication in the statute book
