  Representative Hanley  provide the Committee  with Amendment                 
  the Anchorage  School district from  school construction  to                 
  school  maintenance.   The  shift would  provide 75%  of the                 
  amount  needed  to   complete  roof  repairs  to   the  Spur                 
  Elementary School.   Representative  Hanley MOVED  Amendment                 
                                                                               
  Representative Martin MOVED CS HB 83 (FIN) out of  Committee                 
  with  individual  recommendations.   Representative  Navarre                 
  OBJECTED.                                                                    
                                                                               
  Representative Navarre requested an additional $8.2  million                 
  dollars for the new  Kenai Elementary School.  He  MOVED the                 
  additional allocation  to Page  2, Line  12, noting that  it                 
  would  increase the  amount  included in  Section  2.   This                 
  amount would  provide  70% of  the project  cost.   Co-Chair                 
  MacLean  OBJECTED  noting  that the  addition  had  not been                 
  submitted for  the priority  list.   Representative  Navarre                 
  argued  that  the  priority  list   had  been  submitted  by                 
  Representative John Davies.                                                  
                                                                               
  A roll call was taken on the MOTION.

  The MOTION to  MOVE the bill from  Committee was reiterated.                 
  Representative  Navarre  OBJECTED.    He  advised  that  the                 
  allocation  of  funds had  not  fairly been  distributed and                 
  emphasized that the priority  list did not reflect areas  of                 
  impact or growth.  There is  little flexibility in the list.                 
                                                                               
                                                                               
  A roll call was taken on the MOTION.
