The Story

It was introduced on January 19, 2017 and referred to the Senate Transportation committee. The committee held a public hearing on February 7, 2017. The committee recommended that the Senate pass it. On February 16, 2017 the Senate adopted “Special Order SB 177 to after SB 180, Without Objection”. On February 16, 2017 the Senate voted to pass it and ordered it to a third reading. It crossed to the House on February 16, 2017 and was referred to the House Public Works and Highways committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 11, 2017. The committee met in executive session on April 12, 2017 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted unanimously, 20–0, to recommend that the House pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On April 20, 2017 the House voted to pass it on a voice vote. The bill was enrolled on April 27, 2017 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on May 9, 2017, making it Chapter 40 of the session laws.
