Committee concurs on Senate Bill 404 after amendment extending permit notice window
Summary
The Senate Local Government Committee voted to concur in Senate Bill 404, which requires local governments and state agencies to provide copies of building permits to the Department of Revenue; a conceptual amendment extended the permit-notice window from 60 days to 90 days.
The Senate Local Government Committee on Thursday concurred in Senate Bill 404, a bill that would require local governments and certain state agencies to provide copies of building permits to the Department of Revenue to help identify new construction.
Committee members adopted a conceptual amendment that changed the required notice window from 60 days to 90 days. The amendment was described on the record as striking “1 month” and inserting “90 days.”
Sponsor remarks summarized the bill’s purpose as a mechanism for the Department of Revenue to identify new construction by receiving permit copies from local governments and the Department of Labor and Industry. A committee member offered the conceptual amendment at the chair’s request; the committee approved the amendment by voice vote with proxies noted.
After amendment, a committee member moved that SB 404, as conceptually amended, be concurred in. The committee carried out a voice vote; the motion passed and the committee reported the bill out.
Proxies recorded on the record show Representatives Estes, Fitzpatrick and Gist casting aye votes by proxy during the amendment and final concurrence votes. No roll-call tally was given in committee minutes quoted on the floor; the chair announced that SB 404 “has passed committee.”
The committee also named a carrier to manage the bill as it proceeds through the legislative process. The record shows the committee concluded the executive action and moved to the next agenda item.
