Loading...
Summary
Chair said the committee will begin work on the capital bill with Scott Moore briefing members, consider capital debt affordability timing changes, and review appointments to the Capital Complex Commission with a planned briefing from David Sheets.
On Jan. 7 the committee signaled it will begin work on the capital bill and review governance for the state's capital complex.
Chair (Speaker 1) said Scott Moore will brief the committee on the capital bill "as it is" to refresh members' understanding, and the committee will invite the capital debt affordability committee to discuss whether extending certain time frames could provide more flexibility to address capital needs. Chair also said she intends to have David Sheets and the Capital Complex Commission appear before the committee to determine whether updates or adjustments to the commission's jurisdiction or guidelines are needed.
The meeting also covered committee responsibilities for interviewing gubernatorial appointees tied to the capital complex. Members did not vote on any appointments at the Jan. 7 meeting and asked staff to schedule the briefings and follow-up discussions with the Capital Complex Commission.
