Committee adopts bill allowing public petitions for beach‑structure integrity reviews
Summary

The committee passed the bill unamended, noting a bad date in the text.
SB 30‑33 permits public petitions to the Department of Land and Natural Resources (DLNR) to request review of the structural integrity of beach structures and requires DLNR to recommend applicable county agencies order owners of any immediately threatened structures to mitigate and plan for harmful effects. The chair noted the bill contained a bad date in its text but recommended passing it unamended; the committee adopted the recommendation.
During the roll call, one member recorded a 'no' vote (Senator O'Rourke). Otherwise, the committee adopted the bill and advanced it from the decision‑making agenda.
