The Story

It was introduced on January 6, 2011 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 25, 2011. The committee met in executive session on February 1, 2011 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On February 9, 2011 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 9, 2011 and was referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 24, 2011. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On April 20, 2011 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on May 4, 2011 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 16, 2011, making it Chapter 69 of the session laws.
