The Story

It was introduced on January 4, 2012 and referred to the House Resources, Recreation and Development committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 10, 2012. The committee held work sessions on January 26, 2012, February 2, 2012 and February 14, 2012. The committee met in executive session on February 21, 2012 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 13–2 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 0961h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (0961h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 15, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On March 15, 2012 the House voted to pass it with changes on a division vote 253–23. It crossed to the Senate on March 28, 2012 and was referred to the Senate Public and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 10, 2012. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2012-1723s). The committee's amendment (1723s) was adopted on a voice vote on April 25, 2012, changing the text of the bill. On April 25, 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 #1723s (Rep Renzullo)” 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 122 of the session laws.
