Government Transparency

HB 2621 (local government budgets; posting; contents) was the subject of a House Government Committee hearing on Tuesday, January 31. The legislation makes a number of changes to the statutes governing local government budget processes.

The League expressed concern about a provision that would prohibit municipalities without websites from using the League website to comply with the law. The sponsor, Rep. Debbie Lesko (R-Glendale) indicated in committee that she is willing to remove that provision when the bill proceeds to the Committee of the Whole. With that change, the League is neutral on the bill, which passed the committee by a unanimous vote. The legislation now proceeds to the House Rules Committee for further consideration.
