The Story
It was introduced on January 4, 2007 and referred to the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 30, 2007. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes. The committee's amendment (0216) was adopted on a voice vote on February 22, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On February 22, 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 on March 28, 2007 and was referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 18, 2007. The committee met in executive session on May 24, 2007 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes, and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (1815h) was rejected on a voice vote on June 6, 2007. A floor amendment (1864h) was adopted on a voice vote on June 6, 2007, changing the text of the bill. On June 6, 2007 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On June 13, 2007 the Senate adopted “Sen. Hassan Concurs with House Amendment{1864}” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 27, 2007 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on July 20, 2007, making it Chapter 305 of the session laws.
