The Story

It was introduced on January 31, 2007 and referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 13, 2007. The committee met in executive session on February 20, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee recommended that the House pass it with changes. The bill was taken off the consent calendar on March 6, 2007. The committee's amendment (0185h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 7, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On March 7, 2007 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On March 7, 2007 the bill was referred to the Ways and Means committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 20, 2007. The committee held work sessions on March 20, 2007, April 2, 2007 and April 3, 2007. The committee met in executive session on April 3, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 12–3 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On April 11, 2007 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on April 12, 2007 and was referred to the Senate Energy, Environment and Economic Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 8, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (1545) was adopted on a voice vote on May 17, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On May 17, 2007 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. A floor amendment (2078), offered by Sen. D'Allesandro, was adopted on a voice vote on June 7, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On June 7, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On June 13, 2007 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate AM #1545s&#2078s(New Title), Rep Spang & Almy” on a division vote 172–78. The bill was enrolled on June 27, 2007 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2370) was adopted to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on July 20, 2007, making it Chapter 329 of the session laws.
