SENATE BILL NO. 194
"An Act creating the Alaska Tourism Marketing Board
and relating to tourism marketing."
9:13:09 AM
Vice-Chair Fairclough MOVED to ADOPT the proposed committee
substitute for SB 194, WORK DRAFT 28-LS1497\P (Martin,
3/21/14) as a working document. There being NO OBJECTION,
it was so ordered.
9:13:35 AM
CHRISTINE MARASIGAN, STAFF SENATOR KEVIN MEYER, changes in
the latest version had generated from previous committee
discussion of the legislation. Language in the bill had
been changed pertaining to the Statewide Non-Profit Tourism
Association, as well as the issue of encouraging the board
to meet electronically. Changes had been made in the way
the quorum was defined; regionalism had been brought up in
discussions and so a list of all regions could not be found
on Page 3 of the bill. The sunset date had been addressed
on Page 4, Line 11; however, a typo had been made.
9:14:53 AM
Co-Chair Meyer noted that the typo would be corrected. He
queried whether Ms. Marasigan had been in contact with the
bill sponsor.
Ms. Marasigan replied in the affirmative.
9:15:30 AM
Vice-Chair Fairclough MOVED to ADOPT a conceptual
amendment:

Co-Chair Meyer inquired if the fiscal note attached to the
bill was zero.
Ms. Marasigan replied in the affirmative. She added that
the funds to support the operation of the board would be
taken from funds that had already been appropriated to the
Department of Commerce, Community and Economic Development
budget.
9:17:06 AM
Vice-Chair Fairclough MOVED to REPORT CSSB 194(FIN) as
amended out of committee with individual recommendations
and the accompanying fiscal notes.
