HB 1090 — Representative Spar moved OTPA on the bill and on amendment 0434h; members adopted the amendment by a show-of-hands count (reported as 16–0) and then passed the OTPA motion by roll call, recorded as 16–0. Committee discussion before the vote focused on clarifying effective dates, rounding language and removing a provision that had included vehicles across waterways.
Both motions were recorded in the committee minutes and will be carried forward on the committee’s consent calendar and in its reports.
