Loading...
Summary
In executive session the committee adopted substitutes and issued due‑pass recommendations for a set of bills, including SB 6037 (fire protection districts), SB 5983 (land classification transfers), SB 5995 (port automated equipment restriction removal), SB 6013 (winter sports terminology), and SB 6066 (crash prevention zones); the committee announced passage "subject to signatures" on several items.
At the end of the public hearings the committee convened an executive session and took action on several bills after staff briefings and discussion.
Actions recorded in the executive session include adoption of proposed substitutes and due‑pass recommendations. The chair called voice votes on motions to adopt substitutes and to recommend bills for passage. The committee announced that several bills "passed subject to signatures." Where a member announced a recusal, that was recorded in the hearing record.
Bills noted with committee action included: • SB 6037 (fire protection districts): a proposed substitute clarifying levy limits and administrative service contracting was adopted and the bill received a due‑pass recommendation to Ways and Means. The committee recorded the bill as "passed subject to signatures." • SB 5983 (current use land transfers): a proposed substitute was adopted and the bill received a due‑pass recommendation to Rules. One member noted a recusal for the floor vote. • SB 5995 (port automated cargo handling): the bill (removing the 12/31/2031 expiration) received a due‑pass recommendation; no amendments were recorded. • SB 6013 (ski/winter sports terminology): the bill received a due‑pass recommendation and was sent to Rules. • SB 6066 (crash prevention zones): an amendment was adopted and rolled into a substitute that received a due‑pass recommendation to Transportation; the bill was announced as passed subject to signatures.
The hearing record lists the motions, voice votes and committee determinations but does not include roll‑call tallies. Committee staff and the chair recorded outcomes as "passed subject to signatures" or "due pass" and sent bills to the next committee as noted. The record shows no detailed roll‑call vote counts or named yes/no tallies for those actions.
Next steps: the listed bills will be transmitted per committee rules to the committees named in the record or to the floor with due‑pass recommendations; fiscal notes or substitutes referenced in staff summaries remain available in committee files.
