HB 4226

This bill modifies Michigan’s fire safety regulations for schools. It requires schools operating grades K-12 to conduct a minimum number of fire drills and tornado safety drills each year, including specific requirements for drills involving building security and restricted occupancy. The bill also mandates that schools document and publicly post information about completed drills and establishes procedures for notifying local emergency management officials about scheduled drills. Additionally, it includes provisions for cardiac emergency response plans and addresses restrictions on conducting drills during state-mandated assessments.
