Sir:

Your Committee on Economic Development and Business Concerns, to which was referred S.B. No. 926, S.D. 2, entitled:

"A BILL FOR AN ACT RELATING TO ENTERPRISE ZONES,"

begs leave to report as follows:

The purpose of this bill is to expand the eligibility requirements to qualify as a "qualified business" to include any business that creates job opportunities within the closed Barbers Point Naval Air Station and designated as an enterprise zone.

The Department of Business, Economic Development, and Tourism opposed this bill.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Economic Development and Business Concerns that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 926, S.D. 2, and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to the Committee on Finance.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Economic Development and Business Concerns,
