The Story
It was introduced on January 8, 2015 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 5, 2015. The committee met in executive session on February 17, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The committee retained the bill, holding it for further work rather than reporting it out this year. The committee held work sessions on May 7, 2015 and September 15, 2015. The committee met in executive session on October 6, 2015 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 13–0, to recommend that the House kill it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On January 6, 2016 the House voted to kill it on a voice vote.
