Committee plans to move regional governance bill and delay tech bill presentation; 15‑minute break called

After discussing H.567 and Vermont Saves, the chair told the committee they planned to move a regional governance bill (referred to as "762") and hoped to consider a technology bill later the same day when the presenter, Maria, arrives. A committee member said they would be willing to vote on both bills; the chair said the regional governance bill could likely be acted on but the tech bill’s presenter would not arrive until 3:30 p.m. and asked that her presentation be shortened to 30 minutes.

Members requested the presentation materials be circulated before the meeting resumes. The chair called a 15‑minute break and said the committee would reconvene around 3:45 p.m.; no formal motions or votes on those bills were recorded during the April 17 session.
