The Story

It was introduced on February 8, 2007 and referred to the Senate Energy, Environment and Economic Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 12, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (0575) was adopted on a voice vote on March 22, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On March 22, 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 with changes. The committee's amendment (1177) was adopted on a voice vote on April 12, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On April 12, 2007 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House and was referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on May 1, 2007. The committee met in executive session on May 2, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The majority recommended that the House pass it with changes, and the minority recommended that the House pass it, by a vote of 9–5. The report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (1437h) was adopted on a voice vote on May 16, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On May 16, 2007 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On May 16, 2007 the bill was referred to the Finance committee. The committee held work sessions on May 22, 2007, May 23, 2007 and May 24, 2007. The committee met in executive session on May 29, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 16–9 to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. On June 6, 2007 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. On June 13, 2007 the Senate adopted “Requests Committee of Conference” on a voice vote. A committee of conference met on June 19, 2007 to try to settle the differences between the two chambers' versions of the bill. 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 (2381) was adopted to correct technical errors found after passage. The governor signed it on July 20, 2007, making it Chapter 348 of the session laws.
