Committee concurs with Senate amendment on House Bill 1075 clarifying noise-ordinance scope
Summary
The House State Agencies & Governmental Affairs Committee concurred in a Senate amendment to House Bill 1075, which clarifies language and expressly states the bill would not prevent a city from enacting or enforcing a noise ordinance.
The House State Agencies & Governmental Affairs Committee on a voice vote concurred in a Senate amendment to House Bill 1075, Representative David Ray (R‑District 69) said, clarifying a line on page 2 and adding language that the bill would not prevent a city from enacting or enforcing a noise ordinance.
The amendment was explained by Representative David Ray, who told the committee the change simplifies the statutory language and confirms the bill does not preempt local noise ordinances. The committee recorded no speakers for or against the amendment. After Representative Ray closed, the committee voted by voice. “All those in favor say aye… The ayes have it,” the chair said, and the committee announced it had concurred in the Senate amendment.
The action was limited to concurrence on the Senate amendment; no further debate or testimony was recorded and no additional statutory references were invoked during the floor discussion.
The committee moved on to the next agenda items after the concurrence vote.
