House Bill 35, presented to the Senate committee by Representative Monson, would extend the advisory committee for the Bears Ears Visitor Center by two years so the committee can complete unfinished work before the original sunset date.
Representative Monson described the change as "easy" and procedural: "Basically, what we're doing is we're just extending the date on this. So it's a 2 year extension." No public testimony opposed the change. Senator Owens moved to recommend the bill favorably to the full Senate, and the motion passed unanimously.
The bill will proceed to the full Senate for consideration.
