House Bill 40 enacts enhanced school safety measures, including the use of secure lock boxes to provide access for law enforcement during an emergency and provides funding for schools to use for purchasing and installing the boxes.
This bill allows schools to use state school safety funds for critical infrastructure improvements - including secure lock boxes like KnoxBox - providing a cost-effective, scalable solution to enhance campus security across Utah.
