It was introduced on January 27, 2005 and referred to the Senate Transportation and Interstate Cooperation committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 23, 2005. The committee recommended that the Senate kill it. On March 17, 2005 the Senate voted to lay it on the table on a voice vote. On March 24, 2005 the Senate adopted “Remove From Table” on a voice vote. On March 24, 2005 the Senate rejected a motion to kill it on a roll call 8–16. On March 24, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it on a roll call 20–4 and ordered it to a third reading, on a motion by Sen. Flanders. On March 24, 2005 the Senate voted to pass it. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 14, 2005. The committee held a work session on May 10, 2005.
