The Utah House took up a broad concurrence calendar on March 6, 2002. The transcript excerpt records these clear roll-call outcomes and procedural dispositions for notable items:
- Third Substitute House Bill 342 (recovery of administrative fee damages related to rental motor vehicles): Passed the House, 67 yes, 5 no. The sponsor explained the bill adds a definition for administrative fees and a formula for their calculation.
- House Bill 300 (amendments to guardian ad litem statutes / child welfare provisions): Passed the House, 54 yes, 20 no; the sponsor explained deletion of some guardian-ad-litem appointment language and other adjustments.
- Substitute House Bill 116 (Local Government Officials Amendments, Joint Conference Committee report): Failed on the floor, 34 yes, 38 no; the motion to adopt the conference report was defeated and the substitute was filed.
- Second substitute Senate Bill 169 (property tax modifications): Passed the House, 72 yes, 0 no; bill clarifies interest calculation for property-tax refunds and aligns interest with the state-pool rate.
- Second substitute Senate Bill 65 (county law revisions): Passed the House, 70 yes, 1 no; bill clarifies recording rules and small-lot subdivision compliance procedures.
- Senate Bill 162 (Department of Human Resource Management reporting of funded vacant positions): Passed the House, 64 yes, 0 no.
Several other bills were read on the House floor, referred back to the Senate for signature, or set for conference committee action; the transcript notes many items were handled under suspension of rules because they had previously been debated and passed earlier in the session.
Procedural note: where the transcript excerpt recorded roll-call tallies, those figures are reported here verbatim. For many other concurrence items the excerpt documents motion and debate but does not include a roll-call tally in the provided lines.
