The Story

The committee held a public hearing on January 20, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 3238). On February 3, 2000 the Senate adopted “Rule 24” on a voice vote. The Senate referred the bill to the Capital Budget committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 18, 2000. On March 16, 2000 the Senate adopted “By nec. 2/3 vote” on a voice vote. On March 16, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. It was introduced on March 30, 2000 and referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 4, 2000. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 4018). On April 6, 2000 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. The committee held a public hearing on April 19, 2000. The committee held work sessions on April 24, 2000 and April 26, 2000. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes, and the minority recommended that the House pass it, by a vote of 18–1. On May 4, 2000 the House adopted “Susp Rules to refer to 2nd Comm” on a voice vote. On May 4, 2000 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 337–6, then referred it on to the House Finance committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 9, 2000. The committee held work sessions on May 10, 2000 and May 11, 2000. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 24–0. On May 18, 2000 the House voted to pass it with changes on a roll call 326–9. On May 18, 2000 the House adopted “Susp Rules for 3rd reading” on a voice vote. On May 18, 2000 the Senate voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote 23–0, on a motion by Sen. Russman. An enrolled bill amendment (4676) was adopted on May 18, 2000. These correct technical errors found after passage. On May 18, 2000 the House voted to pass it. The bill was enrolled on May 31, 2000 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 8, 2000, making it Chapter 245 of the session laws. It took effect on June 8, 2000.
