The Story

It was introduced on January 2, 2019 and referred to the House Municipal and County Government committee. The committee held a public hearing on March 6, 2019. The committee met in executive session on March 13, 2019 to vote on its recommendation. The committee voted 17–1 to recommend that the House pass it with changes (amendment 2019-0726h), and the report was placed on the regular calendar. The committee's amendment (2019-0726h) was adopted on a voice vote on March 20, 2019, changing the text of the bill. On March 20, 2019 the House voted to pass it with changes on a voice vote. It crossed to the Senate on March 28, 2019 and was referred to the Senate Election Law and Municipal Affairs committee. The committee held a public hearing on April 10, 2019. The committee voted unanimously, 5–0, to recommend that the Senate pass it, and the report was placed on the consent calendar. On May 2, 2019 the Senate voted to pass it on a voice vote and ordered it to a third reading. An enrolled bill amendment (2019-1882e) was adopted on a voice vote on May 2, 2019. These correct technical errors found after passage. The bill was enrolled on May 23, 2019 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor — and an enrolled bill amendment (2019-1882e) was adopted on a voice vote to correct technical errors found after passage. The bill was enrolled on May 30, 2019 — the final check of the text before it goes to the governor. The governor signed it on June 18, 2019, making it Chapter 82 of the session laws.
