6:07:16 PM                                                                                                                    
CHAIR RALPH SEEKINS announced SB 307 to be up for consideration.                                                                
                                                                                                                                
JANE ALBERTS, Staff to Senator  Con Bunde introduced the bill and                                                               
informed the committee of a committee substitute (CS).                                                                          
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR GENE THERRIAULT  moved version F as  the working document                                                               
before the committee. Hearing no objections, the motion carried.                                                                
                                                                                                                                
MS. ALBERTS  said the  CS contains new  language, which  makes it                                                               
possible  for  the landlord  to  issue  a  single notice  or  two                                                               
separate notices for failure to pay  rent and failure to pay rent                                                               
fees. The judge would consider  each aspect of the dispute during                                                               
one hearing. The CS does allow  the tenant three more days to pay                                                               
the rent and the sponsor supports that.                                                                                         
                                                                                                                                
6:09:09 PM                                                                                                                    
ROBERT MAIER, Alaska  Manufactured Housing Association, testified                                                               
that version F  gets the bill back to the  original intent, which                                                               
is simplicity. He expressed support for the bill.                                                                               
                                                                                                                                
MS. ALBERTS  advised that  Ed Sniffen was  online earlier  in the                                                               
day and was prepared to testify in support of the bill.                                                                         
                                                                                                                                
SENATOR HOLLIS  FRENCH opined the  bill was a  compromise between                                                               
the two ideas of a speedy hearing and the one hearing.                                                                          
                                                                                                                                
CHAIR SEEKINS closed public testimony.
