SB  11 SCHOOL DEBT REIMBURSEMENT                              
                                                                              
  CHAIRMAN WILKEN  announced  SB 11  to be up for consideration.               
                                                                               
  SENATOR WARD  moved to adopt the CS to SB 11.  There were no                 
 objections and it was so ordered.                                             
                                                                               
  BRETT HUBER,  Staff to Senator Halford, sponsor, explained the               
 changes in the CS which addressed the concerns of the committee.              
                                                                               
  SENATOR LEMAN  noted the language referring to 75 rather than 70             
 percent on page 4, line 13 that he did not recall from last week's            
 amendment.   CHAIRMAN WILKEN  explained that it is personal                   
 preference; he liked 75 percent better because it is a fixed number           
 and it becomes rooted in people's minds that the state pays three             
 quarters.  He noted that Senator Leman was not in the room when it            
 was discussed before the committee.                                           
                                                                               
  SENATOR GREEN  moved to pass CSSB 11(HES) from committee with                
 individual recommendations and the accompanying fiscal notes.                 
 There were no objections and it was so ordered.
