The Story

It was introduced on January 3, 2013 and referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 22, 2013. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2013-0218s), and the report was placed on the consent calendar. The committee's amendment (0218s) was adopted on a voice vote on February 14, 2013, changing the text of the bill. On February 14, 2013 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 27, 2013 and was referred to the House Public Works and Highways committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 9, 2013. The committee met in executive session on April 23, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee met in executive session on September 4, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee held work sessions on September 17, 2013 and October 1, 2013. The committee met in executive session on October 23, 2013 to vote on its recommendation. The committee reported: Refer to Interim Study for Jan 8 by a vote of 13–2. On January 29, 2014 the House adopted “Refer to Interim Study” on a voice vote. The committee held work sessions on May 13, 2014 and June 24, 2014. The committee met in executive session on October 21, 2014 to vote on its recommendation. The committee reported back on its interim study of the bill: “Not Recommended for Future Legislation”, by a vote of 14 to 2.
