            House Bill 2467 amends the Health and Safety Code to redefine "playground," for purposes of an offense that occurs in a drug-free zone, to specify that it contains three or more play stations, rather than three or more separate apparatus. The bill makes the penalty enhancements for committing certain drug-related offenses in a drug-free zone applicable to such an offense committed in, on, or within 1,000 feet of a playground.
