The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 1993 and referred to the House Public Works committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 26, 1993. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 17–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 11, 1993 the House voted to pass it with changes, then referred it on to the House Appropriations committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 1, 1993. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 17–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on March 10, 1993. On March 10, 1993 the House adopted “Special Order to 03/11/1993”. On March 11, 1993 the House adopted “Special Order to 03/16/1993”. On March 16, 1993 the House voted to pass it with changes. It crossed to the Senate on March 24, 1993 and was referred to the Senate Capital Budget committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 6, 1993. The committee held a work session on May 13, 1993. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 19, 1993 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 9, 1993 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. It became law without the governor's signature on June 16, 1993, as Chapter 274. The governor neither signed it nor returned it, and the docket records it as enacted under Part II, Article 44 of the state constitution.
