Conference panel extends fireworks task force and adds reporting requirements in SB222
Summary
The joint committee approved a conference draft for SB222 that extends the task force sunset date and requires additional reports to the Legislature; managers voted aye and the committee declared the measure passed as a CD1.
Conference conferees reviewed a proposed CD1 for SB222, a bill concerning fireworks oversight and a related task force. The CD1 uses the senate draft as base language and extends the task force’s sunset date while imposing additional reporting obligations to the Legislature so the task force can continue its work.
Senate chair and co-chairs voiced support for the CD1 and recorded aye votes from both chambers’ managers; one member was noted as excused. With money-committee release obtained on the senate side and a clean date upon approval requested, the committee voted to pass the conference draft and announced the bill’s passage.
Next steps: The enacted CD1 will be processed per standard procedures; conferees noted expectations to transmit the finalized draft and associated memoranda to Ways and Means for any residual review.
