Scottsdale’s Water Remediation Legislation The City’s water remediation bill, SB 1366, passed both the Senate Rules Committee and its first vote on the Senate floor. We anticipate SB 1366 will receive its final vote in the Senate in the near future. Thus far, the bill has received unanimous support and there is no known opposition. Short-term Rental Legislation Two short-term rental bills have now passed their respective committees. SB 1379, which is viewed as being supported by representatives of the short-term rental industry, and HB 2481 which is supported by local governments.

  • Legislative Bulletin Is Published by the League of Arizona Cities and Towns
    ISSUE 11 - MARCH 18, 2011 Legislative Overview Today is the 68th day of the first session of Arizona's 50th Legislature. The past week was an unusually busy one at the State Capitol, where the news was dominated by the Senate budget plan (see story below), the forced ouster of the Senate Majority Leader and defeat of immigration bills authored by the Senate President. Late Tuesday, Senate leadership released its comprehensive budget plan. The package of budget bills (SB 1612 through SB 1624) includes spending reductions at least $368 million deeper than those proposed by Governor Brewer. It also omits some $275 million in spending increases proposed in the Governor's budget. The budget package passed the Senate on Wednesday on a series of votes that generally followed along party lines. In other news, Republicans voted 12-9 to remove Senator Scott Bundgaard (R-Peoria) from his leadership position as Senate Majority Leader. He was replaced by Senator Andy Biggs (R-Gilbert). Highway User Revenue Fund Among the proposals included in the Senate budget is a diversion of $83 million from the Highway User Revenue Fund (HURF) to the Arizona Department of Transportation. Approximately one-half of that amount, $43 million, comes from that portion of HURF funding distributed to cities, towns and counties. The net effect on municipalities is a loss of approximately $26 million in HURF distributions over and above the $12.5 million reduction previously proposed by the Governor. The League opposes the additional HURF reduction and prefers and supports the Governor's budget. We will continue to work constructively with legislators and the Governor on a final budget that minimizes negative impacts on cities and towns.

  • Bulletin 5: February 12, 2021
    Issue 5 – February 12, 2021 Legislative Update Today is the 33rd day of session and 1,707 bills and 113 memorials or resolutions have been introduced. The period to introduce legislation is now over for both chambers. Except for budget bills, no new legislation can be introduced. Next week is the last week to hear bills in the chamber of origin, which means that committees for the week will have lengthy agendas as legislators try to get their bills heard before the deadline. The legislature continues to move swiftly. So far, the Governor has signed 18 bills, while 12 await his signature or veto. Utility Condemnation This week the Senate Commerce discussed a strike-everything amendment to SB1154 related to eminent domain, sponsored by Sen. J.D. Mesnard (R-Chandler), but did not take a vote on the bill. It has been rescheduled for a hearing in next Wednesday at 2 p.m. in the same committee. The striker amendment would require a city or town exercising eminent domain to file one or more appraisals with the superior court that support the proposed compensation for the condemnation. The League testified in opposition in committee because the current statutes already require cities and towns to obtain and deliver an appraisal to the utility being condemned, but the appraisal itself is not admitted in the superior court case due to procedural rules. The amendment isn’t clear about how the court is supposed to handle the appraisal once its filed, which will likely lead to increased attorneys’ fees to litigate over the role of the appraisal in the court case.

  • End of Session Report
    2014 End of Session Report ARIZONA PEST PROFESSIONALS ORGANIZATION Prepared by: Capitol Consulting, LLC 818 N. 1st Street Phoenix, AZ 85004 www.azcapitolconsulting.com P a g e | 2 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Dear AZPPO Members: Sine Die! On April 24, 2014, the 51st Arizona Legislature adjourned sine die at 1:46 AM after 101 days in session. By rule a session can last 100 days with provisions in place for extending it. As you recall, those provisions were put to the test last year with the uncomfortably long 151-day session. The 51st Legislature, 2nd Regular Session officially commenced January 13, 2014. A total of 1,205 bills were introduced by the legislature and of those, 276 have been signed by Governor Janice K. Brewer. The session began as usual with the governor announcing policy priorities for the year during the State of the State address. The governor’s priorities were perhaps met with a little more attentiveness from the legislature after a rocky end to the 2013 session. As you may recall part of the Governor’s ambitious 2013 agenda meant crossing political boundaries at the expense of the most conservative within the state’s GOP. In 2013, the governor muscled her way to pass the Medicaid expansion. After weeks of stalled budget negotiations, the Governor called a Special Legislative Session in an effort to bypass House and Senate leadership and call Medicaid to question. The move sparked rumors of a legislative coup and drove a wedge straight through the Republican caucus, dividing the moderate and conservative members. During her final State of the State address in January, Governor Brewer focused on two priorities including a complete overhaul of the state’s defunct child protective services and a proposal to create new incentives for manufactures to set up shop in Arizona.
