4/14/06: On House Transportation and Economic Development: Monday 4/17/06: Proposed Committee bill for the Growth Management Glitch bill was HGM1 and is now HB7167. This one has some minor changes and no red lights flashing yet.

 

 4/18/06: HB7253 is on the State Infrastructure Council
       
4/4/06: HGM2 is now HB7253, just was introduced by the House Growth Management Committee. There is no bill number yet. But this bill would weaken water and school concurrency; weakens citizen participation; messes with the DRI's.  Our lobbyist Susie Caplowe informed Senator Bennett that these bills are undoing what passed in SB360 and not to let similar language get amended to his bill.  Even though his bill SB1020, is going after DRI's. The water and school concurrency is still intact.
