Panel approves reimbursements tied to Bill 22-91 for advisory-committee attendance

The commission voted to approve reimbursement requests connected to Bill 22-91, which covers travel and attendance for members of the business sandbox advisory committee. Matt Billingsley introduced the request and identified the legislators who would be paid.

"This is in reference to bill 22 91 on the business sandbox advisory committee. The need [is] approval to pay Representative Clayton, Representative Tarwater, Senator Klimp, and Senator Miller," Matt Billingsley said. Representative Croft moved to approve the disbursements and Senator Blasey seconded; the motion carried by voice vote.

Why it matters: the vote formalizes payment to four named legislators for participation in a statutorily referenced advisory committee, clearing administrative steps needed to process reimbursements. The meeting record does not include an itemized dollar total or an item-by-item vote tally. Staff did not report penalties or disputes about the request during the discussion.

What’s next: no additional action was recorded in this meeting; the reimbursement approvals were recorded as passed and will proceed through the commission's administrative process.
