SCR 16-SPECIAL SESSION TO BE HELD ON ROAD SYSTEM  8:07:02 AM CHAIR LYNN announced that the first order of business would be CS FOR SENATE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION NO. 16(STA), Urging the Governor to designate a location for a special session of the Twenty-Ninth Alaska State Legislature, if called after adjournment of the Second Regular Session of the Twenty-Ninth Alaska State Legislature, that is in a community on the state's road system. 8:07:35 AM SENATOR BILL STOLTZE, Alaska State Legislature, as prime sponsor, advised that SCR 16 is a specific resolution addressing a non-binding, one time circumstance the legislature is currently facing with the capitol renovation beginning at the time of the statutory 90-day limit. He said the governor advised he would call a special session related to a state income tax and other weighty issues. In the event the legislature extends longer than its 90-day limit, the resolution reads that the legislature would meet "somewhere on the road system," and legislators could make that decision should it become necessary. He opined it would be irresponsible for the legislature to continue its work during the renovations, because the state could pay penalties if it impedes construction. He described the proposed concurrent resolution as a non-binding, registered, official voice of the legislature. 8:12:16 AM REPRESENTATIVE VAZQUEZ commented that the intent of the resolution is excellent because construction will soon begin, and there are safety issues, and financial penalty issues. On a personal basis, she said having the session in Anchorage is cost effective and that the fiscal note should indicate the savings. It is economical to meet on the road system with 21 House representatives living in the Anchorage bowl area, she said. 8:13:50 AM REPRESENTATIVE KELLER moved to report CSSCR 16(STA) out of committee with individual recommendations and the accompanying fiscal notes. There being no objection CSSCR 16(STA) out of the House State Affairs Standing Committee.
