The Environment Committee reconvened and completed roll-call votes on multiple measures during a short March 8 session, approving several bills and a consent calendar that included Senate Bill 194.
The committee took formal votes on House Bill 5223 "an act concerning minor revisions to agriculture related statutes," House Bill 5217 "an act concerning the use of certain rodenticides," House Bill 5218 "an act concerning the establishment of riparian buffers and revision of certain inland wetland provisions," and House Bill 5214 concerning Madison Park. Members were polled individually; several members explicitly recorded "yes" votes, and the bills were handled on the floor and included on the consent calendar where noted.
The chair and clerk conducted the roll call and confirmed remote members were able to vote. Hector, after resolving a camera/microphone issue, stated, "I vote yes." Representative Arseno and Representative Smith were recorded as voting "yes" on the listed consent-calendar items; Representative Felipe and Representative Sanchez were recorded as "yes" on HB 5214. The clerk listed the consent calendar as including SB 194, HB 5225, HB 5223, HB 5216, HB 5222 and HB 5227.
Most items were processed with minimal discussion or substantive debate on the record. A short portion of the transcript contains an unclear remark referencing "Hospital5217" and "risk," which appears garbled and could not be clarified from the record.
The chair confirmed that all required votes had been recorded and adjourned the Environment Committee meeting for March 8.
