died on adjournment

SB 1224 - This act modifies provisions relating to searches and seizures of private property by public entities. SEARCHES AND SEIZURES ON PROPERTY FENCED OR ENTRY NOT PERMITTED (SECTION 542.296) This act provides that a search and seizure of a person's private property is unlawful if such search and seizure was made without a warrant on the property of a landowner who fenced or posted a "no trespassing" sign on the property, or, by some other means, indicated unmistakably that entry is not permitted, except in the case of national security or in the case of a missing person. This provision is identical to a provision in SB 625 (2025), SB 1089 (2024), SB 309 (2023), and SB 1027 (2022). CAMERAS ON PRIVATE PROPERTY (SECTION 542.525) This act repeals provisions relating to obtaining permission from a chief law enforcement officer to place surveillance cameras on private property. This provision is identical to HB 2547 (2026), and to a provision in SB 625 (2025), HB 209 (2025), HB 561 (2025), in HB 1609 (2024), HB 1788 (2024), in HCS/HBs 178, 179 & 401 (2023), HB 335 (2023), in HCS/HB 1694 (2022), and HB 2612 (2022).
