The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2012 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 7, 2012. The committee met in executive session on February 13, 2012 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 17–0, to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0765h), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0765h) was adopted on a voice vote on February 22, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On February 22, 2012 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 7, 2012 and was referred to the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 27, 2012. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 11, 2012 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. The bill was enrolled on April 18, 2012 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 2, 2012, making it Chapter 29 of the session laws.
