Committee approves introduction of two BDRs on wildfire‑risk areas and public‑works recordkeeping
Summary
The committee voted to introduce two bill draft requests: BDR 42‑518 (fire risk areas) and BDR 208‑949 (public works contracting recordkeeping). The motion to introduce both BDRs carried by voice vote.
At the start of the March 7 meeting, the Senate Commerce and Labor Committee considered two bill draft requests and voted to introduce them to begin the legislative drafting process.
The two BDRs are: - BDR 42‑518: establishes certain requirements relating to areas in which the risk of fire is high. - BDR 208‑949: relates to public works, expanding recordkeeping requirements for contractors and subcontractors engaged on public works, providing exceptions to the confidentiality of such records, and other matters properly relating thereto.
Sen. Flores moved to introduce both BDRs; Senator Ellison seconded. The chair called the question; the committee voice vote was in the affirmative and the motion carried. Committee members were reminded that a vote to introduce a BDR is procedural only and is not an expression of support for the substance of a draft request.
Ending: Both BDRs will be drafted and scheduled for future hearings as appropriate.
