Senate approves consent calendar items including tax and inspection measures
Summary
The Senate approved several consent‑calendar bills by voice or recorded vote, including a sales‑tax exemption for manufactured homes and housekeeping changes to property‑tax and administrative‑rules provisions.
On Feb. 4, 1992, the Utah Senate cleared a multi‑item consent calendar. Items approved included:
- Senate Bill 107 (sales‑tax exemption for manufactured homes), recorded as 26 ayes, no nays, 3 absent. Supporters said the measure treats a manufactured home in a park in parity with other homes for sales‑tax purposes.
- House Bill 30 (property‑tax phase‑2 recodification), carried as a housekeeping measure from the tax‑revision commission; recorded as 24 ayes, no nays, 5 absent.
- House Bill 87 and House Bill 88 (administrative‑rules committee recommendations) and House Bill 34 (motor‑vehicle safety inspection program funding) were also approved by voice or recorded tallies and will be returned to the House or be signed as appropriate.
Senators handled the consent items quickly and by standard procedure to keep the floor calendar moving; these items were recorded and sent to the House or signed as indicated.
