Synopsis As Introduced
Amends the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity Law. Creates the Military Base Support and Economic Development Committee within the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to make reports and act as a communications center for issues relating to military base closures in the State. Provides conditions for membership on the Committee. Sets forth a list of issues pertaining to base closures that the Committee shall advise the Department upon. Provides that the Committee, in cooperation with the Department, shall make an annual report to the Governor and General Assembly concerning the progress of military base retention and economic development efforts in areas of the State where a military base has closed or may close. Requires the Committee to serve as a central information clearinghouse for military base closing and retention activities. Effective immediately.

House Committee Amendment No. 1
Deletes everything after the enacting clause. Reinserts the provisions of the engrossed bill. Further amends the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity Law. Creates the Interagency Military Base Support and Economic Development Committee within the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity to coordinate the State's activities on and to act as a communications center for issues relating to military base closures in the State. Provides that membership on the Committee shall be composed of 18 members (instead of 13) with representatives from the Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity, the Department of Transportation, the Department of Natural Resources, the Environmental Protection Agency, the Department of Revenue, and the Department of Military Affairs serving on the Committee (removes the Lieutenant Governor from the Committee). Provides that the 8 public members representing counties near current or former base locations shall be appointed by the chair of the Committee in consultation with the full Commission (rather than being appointed by the Governor). Provides that the Director of Commerce and Economic Opportunity shall serve as chair of the Committee (instead of the Governor appointing the chair). Provides that the expenses necessary to carry out the function of the Committee shall be shared among the members' agencies pursuant to an interagency agreement from funds appropriated for this purpose or from existing funds within the budgets of the members' agencies. Sets forth that each member of the Committee must request reimbursement from his or her individual agency for actual and necessary expenses incurred while performing his or her duties as a member of the Committee and that public members shall be reimbursed from funds appropriated to the Department for that purpose. Provides that the Committee, in cooperation with the Department, shall keep the Governor and General Assembly informed concerning the progress of military base reuse, retention, realignment, and economic development efforts in the State (instead of annually reporting on these efforts to these entities). Effective immediately.

House Floor Amendment No. 2
Provides that the Lieutenant Governor shall serve as chair of the Interagency Military Base Support and Economic Development Committee and that the Director of Commerce and Economic Opportunity shall serve as vice-chair and shall oversee the administration of the Committee and its function. Authorizes the chair and vice-chair to appoint the 8 public members of the Committee in consultation with the full Committee.
