The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 1996 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 25, 1996. The committee held a work session on February 13, 1996. The majority of the committee recommended that the House kill it unanimously, 18–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on March 5, 1996. On March 7, 1996 the House adopted “Suspend Rules on deadline”, on a motion by Rep. A Torr & Trombly. On March 13, 1996 the House voted to study it after the session ends on a voice vote. The committee held work sessions on May 9, 1996, May 15, 1996, June 6, 1996, June 20, 1996, September 11, 1996 and October 2, 1996. The committee reported back on its interim study of the bill: “REC/AM FOR LEG IN 1997”.
