The Story
It was introduced on January 3, 1996 and referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 17, 1996. The committee held work sessions on January 24, 1996 and January 31, 1996. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes by a vote of 17–1, and the report was placed on the consent calendar.
