Presentation

Chair opened with a brief walk-through of S.252; explained the bill amends Title 20 fee schedule for Vermont Crime Information Center (VCIC) checks and would exempt certain requests from the current $30 criminal record check fee — specifically agencies administering no-cost home-delivered meals for older Vermonters. Chair asked for input from Michelle Child (Office of Legislative Counsel) and recommended hearing from Stuart Sherrer, general counsel, to clarify who pays current fees and waiver practices.
