Committee unanimously recommends MC 17 25 as amended to cover similarly named road-safety plans
Summary
The committee approved a tweak amendment to MC 17 25 that expands eligibility beyond entities with named plans like 'Vision 0' to any comparable road-safety plan; the committee then voted unanimously to recommend the bill as amended.
The Land Use, Transportation and Public Safety Committee voted unanimously to recommend MC 17 25 with a minor amendment intended to broaden the bill's coverage so that benefits apply to any similar road-safety plan regardless of the plan's name.
Chair (S1) described the amendment as a minor "tweak" to ensure the bill's benefits are not limited to county or municipal entities that specifically have named plans such as a "Vision 0" plan. A committee member (S3) moved the amendment and it was seconded; the chair called the vote and announced the amendment passed unanimously.
A motion to approve MC 17 25 as amended was then put before the committee, seconded and approved. Chair (S1) noted the committee had discussed the amendment in prior meetings and then declared the bill passed with a favorable recommendation as amended. A committee member (S2) sought a brief clarification that the earlier vote had been on MC 8 25.
The transcript records sponsor attribution in the record: MC 17 25 is identified as "Delegate Solomon's bill." The transcript does not record a roll-call tally; the chair described the votes as unanimous and no numerical vote counts appear in the record.
The committee adjourned after finishing the session agenda.
