The Story

It was introduced on February 22, 2001 and referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 3, 2001. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 0819). On April 12, 2001 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote, then referred it on to the Senate Finance committee. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On May 1, 2001 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 15, 2001. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it with changes unanimously, 12–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 31, 2001 the House voted to pass it with changes. On June 7, 2001 the Senate adopted “Sen. Eaton Concur with House Amendment” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 12, 2001 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (1603) was adopted to correct technical errors found after passage. The bill was enrolled on June 13, 2001 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 29, 2001, making it Chapter 155 of the session laws. It took effect on June 29, 2001.
