SB 621 - Current law provides for procedures for bringing a nuisance action in the cities of St. Louis and Kansas City. This act applies such provisions to the city of Springfield. The act also provides that such actions for injunctive relief shall be heard by the court without a jury. Current law also provides for an award of attorney fees and expenses for property owners who prevail in a nuisance action against the owner of commercial or industrial property. This act allows for such award regardless of the type of property owner an action is brought against.
This act is similar to provisions in the truly agreed to and finally passed SS#2/SCS/HB 199 (2025), identical to HB 739 (2025), and similar to provisions in HB 1258 (2025), SCS/SB 388 (2025), SCS/HB 352 (2025), and HCS/HB 716 (2025).
