Utah special session roundup: conference reports, funding fixes and final business
Summary
The Utah House completed special-session business May 19, 1992: it concurred with conference reports on clean-fuel incentives, passed technical corporate fixes and displaced homemaker funding, advanced several bills to the Senate, and appointed committees before adjourning to 'sign and die.'
During the May 19 special session the House handled multiple conference reports, resolutions, and governor-added items. Key actions included concurrence with a conference committee report on House Bill 1 (clean fuel vehicle tax incentives), which the House approved by voice/roll call and returned to the Senate for signatures. Clerks reported multiple returned and signed measures from the Senate (HCR 1, HCR 2, HB 3, HB 4) and the Speaker appointed House conferees to meet with the Senate as needed.
Senate Bill 1 (displaced homemaker funding) was amended on the floor (Representative Beverly Evans) to consolidate sunset language into a single statutory location and to ensure a funding source (a $20 attachment mentioned for marriage licenses). The amended SB1 passed the House 67–1. Senate Joint Resolution 1 (legislative article revision) was amended on a pink sheet to clarify ballot language and passed the House 71–0.
Representative Nancy S. Lyons introduced House Bill 5, technical amendments to the Utah Revised Business Corporation Act, adding cross-reference language and an effective date (07/01/1992); HB 5 passed the House (63–0) and was sent to the Senate. Conference committee reports for HB1 were returned multiple times; the House discussed typographical/clerical inconsistencies and later concurred with the corrected conference report. At the close of business the Speaker appointed committees to wait upon the Senate and the Governor to notify them the House had completed its business; the House adjourned 'to sign and die.'
