HB1132 allows nonprofit organizations focused on history or education to create and govern special "historical or educational townsites" without meeting the normal population requirements that apply to regular municipalities. These townsites would be governed by the nonprofit's board of directors under its bylaws, and they could only receive public funding if it's specifically designated for tourism, education, or recreation purposes.
