Chair Rep. Jim Pressell opened the Roads and Transportation committee and asked members to introduce themselves; multiple representatives gave their districts (e.g., Wendy Deah Chester, Mike Andrade, Earl Harris, Chris May, Lindsay Paterson, Ethan Lauson, Craig Hagger). The committee confirmed agenda order and said SB 179 would be heard first.

Speakers:

A state House Roads and Transportation committee heard Senate Bill 179 (the INDOT/NDOT agency bill) — including technical GIS updates, grant and permitting changes and a contested proposal to limit liability for private construction inspection firms — and began debate on Senate Bill 167, a Marion County billboard relocation measure that drew strong neighborhood opposition. Both bills were held for amendment and further committee work.
