Regular Session 2011

Title

Senate, Special Order Calendar

Summary

SR123 creates a Special Order Calendar to make four Senate bills priority on the Twenty-Third Legislative Day.

What This Bill Does

It designates SB178, SB295, SB117, and SB296 as the special, paramount, and continuing order of business for that day, taking precedence over all other matters until they are disposed of. This is a scheduling rule, not a new law, and it only applies to that single day. The four bills cover real property transfer fee rules (SB178), an Individual Development Account Program for low-income people (SB295), regulation of certain Schedule I controlled substances (SB117), and sex offender notification/registration procedures (SB296).

Who It Affects

• Senate members and legislative staff who must prioritize and process these bills on the Twenty-Third Legislative Day
• Stakeholders related to the four bills (property owners/transfer fee policy; low-income individuals and program administrators; those involved with controlled substances/public health; sex offenders and the community) who may see faster or earlier consideration of these topics

Key Provisions

• SB178: Real property, deeds and other instruments; transfer fee obligations prohibited; enforcement and procedures related to prior transfer fee obligations; sections 35-4-431 to 35-4-436 referenced
