The Story

It was introduced on January 8, 2015 and referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on January 20, 2015. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it with changes (amendment 2015-0225s). The committee's amendment (0225s) was adopted on a voice vote on February 12, 2015, changing the text of the bill. On February 12, 2015 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 4, 2015 and was referred to the House Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 7, 2015. The committee held a work session on April 14, 2015. The committee met in executive session on April 21, 2015 and April 28, 2015. The committee voted unanimously, 15–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 6, 2015 the House adopted “Recommit (Rep Steven Smith)” on a voice vote. The committee met in executive session on May 20, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 10–5 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2015-1457h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (1457h) was adopted on a voice vote on June 3, 2015, changing the text of the bill. On June 3, 2015 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. On June 4, 2015 the Senate adopted “Sen. Stiles Concurs with House Amendments #1457h” on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on June 11, 2015 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 26, 2015, making it Chapter 178 of the session laws. It took effect on August 25, 2015.
