Votes at a glance: conference committee actions — April 27
Summary
Conference committees recorded committee-level approvals for SB 2398 (residential utilities) and HP 1737 (farm employee housing); other items were rolled over pending committee releases.
The joint House–Senate conference committees recorded the following outcomes on April 27 during sessions in conference room 2-24:
- SB 2398 (SD2, HD2, residential housing utilities): Conference committee approved CD1 language that requires county boards of water supply to publish service-area maps and lists of service-restricted areas by Jan. 1, 2029. Recorded tally in the transcript shows seven ayes and one no (Representative Cochran). The committee declared the measure passed out of conference.
- HP 1737 (HD3, SD2, farm employee housing): Conference committee passed CD1 with amendments removing an income-verification requirement and clarifying occupancy language that allows counties to limit occupancy to agricultural employees and immediate family members. The committee recorded unanimous ayes in the transcript and declared the measure passed.
- Several other housing-related measures (HB 1711, HP 173, HB 17018, HB 17400, HB 1920, SB 2069, SB 2338, SB 2544, SB 2552) had CD1 language agreed but were rolled over pending finance/WHAM/WA committee releases; reconvening was scheduled for April 28.
These are committee-level outcomes recorded in conference; bills will continue through the legislative process and may require additional committee or floor action before final enactment.
