Committee adopts amendment and advances HB 2351 on enterprise zone reporting
Summary
The committee adopted the -1 amendment to House Bill 2351 and voted to advance the amended bill to the House Committee on Revenue with a do-pass recommendation. The bill updates reporting requirements for enterprise zones and expands Department of Revenue duties, with stakeholders expected to have further input in the revenue committee.
Committee staff summarized House Bill 2351 as updating reporting requirements related to enterprise zones, expanding Department of Revenue duties and increasing reporting related to long-term tax incentive compliance in rural enterprise zones. The summary said the bill and the -1 amendment have minimal fiscal impact and a ‘revenue light’ designation for further analysis in House Committee on Revenue.
The chair noted stakeholders would have an additional opportunity to comment when the bill moves to the revenue committee. The committee adopted the -1 amendment on a motion by Vice Chair Del; the chair announced the amendment adopted with no recorded opposition during the floor exchange.
Vice Chair Deahl (as recorded) then moved to advance House Bill 2351 as amended to the floor with a do-pass recommendation and to refer it to the House Committee on Revenue. The clerk called the roll. The roll-call in the transcript recorded Representative Dobson as “aye,” Representative Blakely “aye,” Representative Walsmore “yes,” Representative Scarlato “no,” Representative Watanabe “aye,” Representative Juncker “no,” Vice Chair Diehl “no,” Vice Chair Isidore “yes,” and Chair Winn “yes.” The chair announced the motion passed and closed the work session on HB 2351.
The committee’s action advances reporting and compliance changes for enterprise zones to the revenue committee for further fiscal and policy review.
