  • Legislative Update
    Week of February 8th to February 12th, 2021 Legislative Update February 12th is the 33rd day of the legislative session and 1,707 bills have been introduced, 29 bills have passed both chambers and five bills have been signed by the Governor. 100 more bills have been introduced this session over last. The City of Scottsdale staff are currently tracking 125 bills that have potential impact to municipal functions. Legislative Action: Monday was the last day for the introduction of bills for this year totaling 1,707 bills. Additional bills will be allowed introduction for completion of the state budget and for extenuating circumstances. Next week will be the last week to hear bills in the committees in the house of origin (House bills in the House, Senate bills in the Senate) with exceptions for Rules and Appropriations committees. We expect to see lengthy committee agendas and long hearings. 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. Mayor Ortega testified in support of HB 2481 on Wednesday and the bill passed the House Government & Elections committee with a vote of 8-5.

  • 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.

  • Senate COVID-19 Protocols; House to Follow Suit
    Senate COVID-19 Protocols; House To Follow Suit Senate President Karen Fann (LD1) announced COVID-19 mitigation strategies for the upcoming Legislative session. Anyone entering the Senate building must wear a face mask and have their temperature checked at the door. President Fann emphasized that masks must stay on whenever more than one person is in a room and failing to comply with the rules could result in an early end of the session. “I am convinced that adherence to these protocols is necessary to eliminate some of the divisiveness we have encountered throughout this pandemic…. failure to adhere could result in lack of quorums, inability to conduct voting, and other work we need to accomplish, or ultimately session shutdown.” Additional COVID-19 mitigation strategies include: Anyone who is sick, or is known to have been exposed to COVID-19 but doesn’t show symptoms, will be barred from entering the building until at least 10 days have passed since symptoms appeared or the person last took a positive COVID-19 test. If a Senator, employee, or visitor was exposed to a COVID-19 patient, he or she must stay away for at least 14 days, with some exceptions. Members of the public will only be allowed into the building to participate in committee hearings or attend scheduled meetings with lawmakers, and must leave the building once their activity ends. Speaker Bowers announced that the House will be following the same guidelines next session. House Republican Caucus Tension Poses Challenge For Session A few Republican caucus members have suggested that they will withhold voting for incumbent House Speaker Rusty Bowers (LD25) before the 55th Legislature convenes on January 11th, 2021.

  • Southern Arizona Legislators Call on Biden Administration and Governor Ducey to Act
    NEWS RELEASE Arizona House of Representatives Representative Mark Finchem (R-11) Representative Bret Roberts (R-11) Representative Gail Griffin (R-14) Representative Becky Nutt (R-14) 1700 West Washington Phoenix, Arizona 85007 Monday, March 8, 2021 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Southern Arizona Legislators Call on Biden Administration and Governor Ducey to Act STATE CAPITOL, PHOENIX – State Representatives Mark Finchem, Bret Roberts, Gail Griffin, and Becky Nutt today released the following joint statement: “For over a year, Arizonans, and indeed all of America, have been forced to endure a job-killing, mask-and-social-distance-promoting public health policy in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Just as Arizona is finally seeing light at the end of the tunnel with the dramatic reduction in positive cases and associated deaths, the Biden administration has opened the southern border to coyotes and cartels facilitating illegal entry into the United States. Individuals coming across the border without testing, quarantine, and contact tracing are being turned over to non-governmental organizations, which in turn are bussing them wherever in America they may claim to have family or friends. “President Biden, at his inauguration, swore to uphold and defend the Constitution of the United States and to faithfully execute the laws thereof. In his abandonment of border security, policies implemented within hours of taking office, he has exposed the entire nation to thousands of illegal aliens entering the country without any public health precautions. “We call on Governor Doug Ducey to join his fellow border Governor Greg Abbott of Texas in deploying our National Guard to combat the escalating border surge crisis and support the operations of border sheriffs to apprehend and hold these individuals.
