The transcript shows the committee proceeded nominee by nominee, with the chair calling for the roll and recording the yes votes and the absent member. The chair signaled that the committee would note the full vote on each confirmation.

The committee did not record any motions to table or amend the confirmations in the transcript. No public testimony on the nominees was recorded in the committee transcript provided. The committee concluded its business after the confirmations and adjourned planning to meet again Tuesday to consider the Capital Complex and other items.

Samantha Drake, Katie Hayden and Patricia Boucher were confirmed by the committee in separate roll-call votes and will proceed to the next step of the confirmation process per the senate's rules.","mediaType","Video","parentTitle","Senate Institutions - 2025-05-09 - 1:00 PM","oneSentenceSummary","The Senate Institutions Committee confirmed Samantha Drake, Katie Hayden and Patricia Boucher to the parole board in separate roll-call votes, each recorded as 4-0-1 in committee.","taxTitle","Institutions, SENATE, Committees, Legislative , Vermont","taxId",38865,"location","Vermont","headline","shortSummary",{"_33":76,"_35":36,"_37":38,"_39":77,"_41":78,"_43":79,"_45":80,"_47":81,"_49":82,"_51":83,"_53":84,"_55":56,"_57":58,"_59":85,"_61":62,"_63":64,"_65":86,"_67":68,"_69":70,"_71":72,"_73":56,"_74":56},6241580,"Committee approves amendment to House Bill 50 to include leased state properties in inventory",97,18000,115000,"/Search/View?dp=1&key=3255383-e9a1979302c3037c08b77c320002353c&start=18&end=115","https://assets.pipeline.soar.com/3255383-e9a1979302c3037c08b77c320002353c/thumbnail_18000.jpg","/articles/6241580/Vermont/Committee-approves-amendment-to-House-Bill-50-to-include-leased-state-properties-in-inventory","https://secure.pipeline.soar.com/6241580-cbf2391ccf54f19b68e2434bcb0a43d8/orig.mp4?Expires=1773755966&Signature=fSn2AGM1QiV2Q6XhEjA2~hQTC0V7tzHxYTjxorrJlFtbWWrpr6VzljAhbAEEACvhL9oAmXhoL~uxPzU1c~8wl~y8GaB3gdyDHQDaV7FW~Bv4s5T1cR9hurzOBNc0QP8a34mkmO-Hx3c~dHQ8-OX7tBfnCS-vArXi6iXMYsalduLNvJaL45f0WIcCziXct-35r3GQE503FsjgPa1r7YDDpzq1uQQhLqSbIXIhVVWgT9fgOXV5qud~gkR~STF3cd6qJupQROTx~aKnX6ne1l0UW4az7rx6S7XErm5BEskanSN4rALS8D9UuiokcX5dtH8v1NuJrgZLDRMoaIwXmxjyJA__&Key-Pair-Id=KUT5TJCACFTXG","May 9, 2025 — The Senate Institutions Committee voted to approve an amendment to House Bill 50 that expands the commissioner's required inventory of underutilized property to include state-leased as well as state-owned buildings and lands.

The change was approved by voice/roll-call with a recorded tally of 4 yes, 0 no, 1 absent. The committee chair moved to approve the amendment and directed the bill be reported out of committee for further consideration.

John Gray, Office of Legislative Council, described the change as limited in scope. \"It's a very, very small change to H 50,\" Gray said, explaining the bill previously required the commissioner to \"maintain an inventory of all state owned buildings and lands\" and the amendment expands that language to capture \"state-owned and state-leased properties.\" Gray said the amendment will give the commissioner of BTS a clearer picture of both owned and leased properties and enable the office to provide an inventory at the start of each session.

Committee members said they had discussed the revision with the relevant commissioner before the meeting. The transcript records that the committee was informed the commissioner \"was fine with this.\" The bill references an existing inventory effort to identify underutilized buildings and lands; Gray noted that the change simply increases the scope of that inventory.

The committee recorded the vote and the chair said the committee would report the bill. No amendments beyond the change to include leased properties were offered during the discussion. The committee also confirmed it would take up other agenda items when it reconvenes.

The committee is scheduled to meet again Tuesday to consider the Capital Complex and other business, where House Bill 50 is expected to proceed through the next steps in the committee process.","The Senate Institutions Committee voted to approve a narrow amendment to House Bill 50 requiring the commissioner to include state-leased buildings and lands in the underutilized property inventory; the measure will be reported out of committee.","actionData","errors"]
