House Bill 355 amends the Code of Criminal Procedure to prohibit a person subject to sex offender registration from residing on the campus of a public or private institution of higher education unless the person is assigned a numeric risk level of one based on an assessment conducted using the sex offender screening tool and the institution approves the person to reside on the institution's campus. The bill requires an official of the penal institution from which a person subject to sex offender registration is due to be released to inform the person of the prohibition and requires a local law enforcement authority that provides a sex offender registration form to such a person to include with the form a statement describing the prohibition.
