The Story
It was introduced on February 9, 1989 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 2, 1989. The majority of the committee recommended that the House send it back to committee unanimously, 15–0. On March 22, 1989 the bill was referred to the Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held work sessions on April 25, 1989, June 7, 1989 and June 20, 1989. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 13–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on January 4, 1990. On January 4, 1990 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on January 11, 1990 and was referred to the Senate Public Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 25, 1990. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. On January 30, 1990 the Senate voted to pass it with changes. On March 15, 1990 the House voted to reject the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. On April 10, 1990 the Senate adopted “Accede to Request for Committee of Conference”. A committee of conference met on April 13, 1990 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. On April 19, 1990 the Senate adopted “Conference Committee Report”. On April 19, 1990 the House adopted “Conference Committee Report” on a voice vote. An enrolled bill amendment () was adopted on April 19, 1990. These correct technical errors found after passage. The bill was enrolled on April 19, 1990 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on April 27, 1990, making it Chapter 174 of the session laws. It took effect on June 26, 1990.
