Summary

A committee moved and approved a measure requiring county clerks that switch to digital recordkeeping to maintain at least one printed book on-site or provide printed copies; motion passed by voice vote.

An unnamed sponsor closed debate on a bill that would require county clerks who adopt digital records or tablet-based systems to maintain at least one printed book on site or otherwise provide printed record copies. The sponsor said the change preserves a printed record option while allowing counties to use electronic devices.

The sponsor moved 'due pass as amended.' Another member seconded, and the committee approved the motion by voice vote with the ayes prevailing. No public testimony was recorded for or against the measure during the committee session.

The committee chair announced the motion passed and proceeded to the next agenda items. The transcript does not record a bill number for this specific measure or further appropriation details.
