HB 2560 — Summary (combined document content)

Note on sources: The provided document appears to combine two different bills both labeled “HB 2560” from different jurisdictions and sponsors. One is an Arizona education bill introduced by Rep. Lupe Contreras establishing a school mapping data program; the other is an Illinois amendment to the Public Aid Code introduced by Rep. Anna Moeller concerning supportive living/dementia care. The summary below treats each component separately and then notes the legislative status information included in the document.

A. Arizona — School Mapping Data Program (Title 15 amendment)

Purpose

Create a standardized school mapping data program in the Arizona Department of Education to improve emergency response on school campuses by ensuring mapping data is accurate, standardized, and accessible to public safety agencies.

Key provisions

  • Establishes the School Mapping Data Program in the Department of Education and requires the Department to develop program requirements and guidelines.
  • Software and access requirements:
    • Mapping software must be compatible with local, state, and federal public safety platforms.
    • Public safety agencies must be able to view/access data without purchasing additional software or paying fees.
    • Data must be printable.
    • Updates to a school site’s mapping data must propagate across all platforms used by public safety agencies.
  • Mapping content and format requirements:
    • Orientation to true north and overlaid with X/Y grid coordinates.
    • Accurate floor plans over verified aerial images.
    • Site-specific labels: room names/numbers, hallways, external door and stairwell numbers, parking, athletic fields, roadways, neighboring properties.
    • Location of critical utilities, key boxes, AEDs, trauma kits, and known hazards.
  • Vendor contract rules:
    • Contracts must guarantee perpetual, no-cost access to mapping data for the school and public safety agencies.
    • Contractors must verify accuracy via walk-throughs of all buildings and grounds.
  • School obligations:
    • Each public or accredited private K–12 school must develop mapping data meeting the standards.
    • Schools must annually review and either certify data as complete/accurate or update it.
    • Schools must annually provide mapping data to all applicable public safety agencies.
  • Fund and grants:
    • Establishes the School Mapping Data Program Fund to receive legislative appropriations, grants, gifts, donations.
    • Fund is continuously appropriated and exempt from lapse.
    • Schools may apply for grants; funds distributed on a first-come, first-served basis and must be used to develop mapping data.

Appropriation

  • $10,360,000 appropriated from the state general fund for FY 2025–2026 to the School Mapping Data Program Fund.

Affected parties

  • Public and accredited private K–12 schools in Arizona.
  • Local, state, and federal public safety agencies serving schools.
  • Mapping vendors/contractors.

B. Illinois — Supportive Living Facilities / Dementia Care (305 ILCS 5/5-5.01a)

Purpose (as summarized in the document)

Amend the Medical Assistance (Medicaid) Article to permit supportive living program settings to convert non-dementia care units to dementia care units upon application to the Illinois Department of Healthcare and Family Services, with conversions required to be operational within one year and meet existing certification criteria.

Key provisions (high-level)

  • Allows conversions of supportive living facility units from non-dementia to dementia care upon Department approval.
  • Requires converted units to be operational within one year and to meet certification criteria in the Illinois Administrative Code for dementia care units.
  • The bill text also includes (or references) multiple Medicaid rate provisions historically present in Section 5-5.01a, including:
    • Rate percentage targets relative to average nursing facility per diem (various percentages and updates).
    • A dementia-care rate differential (previously specified as at least 1.5× the non-dementia rate starting Jan 1, 2024).
    • Prior references to federal FMAP-related supplemental payments and related implementation language.
  • The document is truncated and contains legacy/precedent rate and program language; the operative change described in the synopsis is the conversion permission and related operational/certification timeline.

Affected parties

  • Supportive living facilities/providers in Illinois.
  • Residents requiring dementia care and other supportive living residents (potential changes in mix of unit types).
  • Illinois Medicaid program (potential impacts on service capacity and expenditures).
  • Department of Healthcare and Family Services (application and oversight role).

Legislative status and timeline (as provided)

  • The document lists numerous legislative actions dated May–June 2025 (committee hearings, readings, passage, enrollment).
  • It shows the bill(s) were passed, sent to the governor, signed, and listed as effective 9/1/2025.
  • Because the document merges content from two states, readers should verify the status for the specific state version of HB 2560 they are interested in (Arizona or Illinois) in the official legislative records for that state.

Potential impacts / considerations

  • Arizona mapping bill: improves emergency preparedness and coordination between schools and public safety, requires funding and administrative resources for implementation and ongoing maintenance, and raises data-security/access management considerations given the sensitive nature of floor plans and campus layouts.
  • Illinois supportive living bill: could increase dementia-care capacity in supportive living settings, affect Medicaid spending and provider operations, and requires timely compliance with facility certification standards.

If you want, I can:
- Pull the official Arizona or Illinois bill text and status from the respective legislative websites and produce a state-specific, fully verified status update; or
- Produce a short one-page fact sheet for school administrators or for supportive living providers explaining operational steps required under each bill.
