HB 25-RECREATIONAL LAND USE LIABILITY/ADV. POSS
2:22:08 PM
CHAIR FRENCH announced the consideration of HB 25 and asked
for a motion to adopt the Senate committee substitute (CS).
SENATOR WIELECHOWSKI moved to adopt the Senate CS for HB
25, 25-LS0174\C, Bailey, as the working document.
CHAIR FRENCH objected for discussion purposes. He explained
that the CS makes three changes. First, on page 1, line 10,
the phrase "directly or indirectly" was deleted. It is no
longer needed since the bill now requires that landowners
directly allow the use of their property through the filing
of an easement. Next, on page 2, lines 7-8, a new
subsection (b) was added to clarify that improved land does
not include buildings, structures, machinery, or equipment.
Finally, new Sections 2, 3, and 4 were added outlining a
procedure for recording the public easements and
establishing that a recording fee will not be charged. He
believes the sponsor will support the changes.
2:23:57 PM
KATIE SHOWS, Staff to Representative Paul Seaton, sponsor
of HB 25, affirmed that the sponsor supports the changes.
CHAIR FRENCH removed his objection and finding no further
objection, announced that the CS is before the committee.
He noted the letter of intent that provides sample language
for drafting an easement and highlighted that people that
grant the public free use of a portion of their land will
get better liability coverage in exchange.
2:25:14 PM
SENATOR HUGGINS moved to adopt the letter of intent.
CHAIR FRENCH found no objection, and announced the letter
of intent is adopted. Also, a title change concurrent
resolution will accompany the bill from committee to
reflect the use of public easements and that collecting
fees for recording the easements is prohibited. Finding no
further committee discussion, he asked for a motion.
SENATOR WIELECHOWSKI motioned to report [Senate] CS for HB
25, Version \C, from committee with individual
recommendations and attached fiscal note(s).
CHAIR FRENCH announced that without objection, SCS HB
25(JUD), 25-LS0174\C, is moved from the Senate Judiciary
Committee.
SENATOR McGUIRE motioned to report a conforming title
change resolution from the Senate Judiciary Committee.
There being no objection, it was so ordered.
