HOUSE BILL 106                                                               
                                                                               
                                5                                              
                                                                               
                                                                               
       "An  Act relating to  the municipal  assistance program                 
       and the  organization grant program; and  providing for                 
       an effective date."                                                     
                                                                               
  Co-Chair  Therriault  noted  that  although  these  programs                 
  remain operative, the Municipal  Assistance and Organization                 
  Grant Funds are inactive and empty.  Legislation would clear                 
  the  "fund"(s)  from   statutes,  and  refer  only   to  the                 
  "program"(s).                                                                
                                                                               
  Mr.  Spencer  noted  that the  Department  of  Community and                 
  Regional Affairs (DCRA) was in support of passage of HB 106.                 
                                                                               
  Representative  Martin  MOVED  to  report   HB  106  out  of                 
  Committee  with  individual  recommendations  and  with  the                 
  accompanying fiscal note.  There being NO OBJECTION,  it was                 
  so ordered.                                                                  
                                                                               
  HB  106  was reported  out  of  Committee with  a  "do pass"                 
  recommendation and with a zero fiscal note by the Department                 
  of Community and Regional Affairs.
