Committee engrosses $2.52 million reappropriation for water-infrastructure replacement and repair
Summary
The committee engrossed Board Bill 43, which reappropriates $2,520,436 for water infrastructure replacement and repair; the clerk noted the bill summary needed an update and provided corrected summary text before engrossment.
The Legislation Rules Committee on Wednesday engrossed Board Bill 43, a reappropriation ordinance that specifies an aggregate amount of $2,520,436 for water-infrastructure replacement and repair.
Clerk Hegs read the bill summary and enumerated multiple ordinance cross-references in the bill language. The clerk told the committee that legal and financial analysts had reviewed dates, figures and citations but that the bill summary displayed to the committee needed correction; the clerk updated the summary and uploaded the corrected document for committee review. Committee members confirmed that, once the summary matched the engrossed bill text, they would move to engross. A motion to engross Board Bill 43 as amended in committee (contingent on the corrected summary) was made, seconded and recorded as engrossed.
Why it matters: The bill moves a reappropriation of $2,520,436 to fund water-infrastructure replacement and repair projects. The transcript does not specify which specific projects or funding sources are being reappropriated; the clerk indicated the corrected summary would be circulated to committee members.
The clerk indicated the corrected summary would be distributed prior to final engrossment; the bill was recorded as engrossed and will proceed to the full board for subsequent consideration.
