The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2005 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 27, 2005. The majority of the committee recommended that the House pass it unanimously, 13–0, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 23, 2005 the House voted to pass it. It crossed to the Senate on March 17, 2005 and was referred to the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 13, 2005. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 1147). On April 21, 2005 the Senate voted to send it back to committee on a voice vote. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 1274). The committee's amendment (1274) was adopted on a voice vote on May 5, 2005, changing the text of the bill. On May 5, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 5, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it. On May 25, 2005 the House voted to agree to the other chamber's changes on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 2, 2005 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor.
