The Story
It was introduced on January 4, 2012 and referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 17, 2012. The committee met in executive session on February 14, 2012 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 10–5 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0247h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0247h) 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 Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 29, 2012. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2012-1501s). The committee's amendment (1501s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 11, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On April 11, 2012 the Senate voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. On May 15, 2012 the House adopted “House Concurs with Senate AM #1501s (Rep Packard)” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on May 23, 2012 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 5, 2012, making it Chapter 120 of the session laws.
