of grace and glory, our Bibles tell us that we are to pray for those in leadership, for those who are in positions of authority. As we gather today, we realize that we are those leaders. We covet the prayers that others are making on our behalf. We know prayer makes a difference. At the same time, we also pray for ourselves today, asking for the wisdom of Solomon, the patience of Job, and the love that God offers. In our prayers, we ask for your guidance. We ask that your Holy Spirit be with us and guide us for this part of the day. Finally, Lord, we ask for a hedge of protection to be on us and those who serve in our military. We pray this in your strong name. Amen. Amen. I beg

Representative Donna Hutchinson Unverified 5:51
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. If you recall, we passed 1045 out of the House. This is about making it a felony if they file false claims against law enforcement, us, the Attorney General staff. We wanted to discourage that type of harassment. There was a sheriff sitting right up there, and afterwards he came down and said he had a false claim filed against him, only the person filed it in the Secretary of State's office, and he wanted me to add either the county clerks or the Secretary of State's office. So I checked with the law, and sure enough, you can file these land transfers in the Secretary of State's office. And if we realized, if they go to the Secretary of State's office. The ladies up there don't know who it is that's filing, and they don't know if it's a false claim. Whereas if these gentlemen go to the county clerk's office, the county clerks do know that it would be a false claim. So I promised him I would add that amendment. We include the Secretary of State's office. The senators approved of it. So I'm asking you just to add the Secretary of State's office to this bill.

1430. House Bill 1430, by Representative Kerr, concerning primary administration of federal allocations of private activity and governmental volume cap.
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error

Representative Kerr, you are recognized to come and explain the bill.
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Allen Kerr Unverified 8:36
Members, this is a kind of a governmental cleanup bill. I'm going to give you some little background information on it. The Administration of the Allocation of the Private Activity Volume Camp, or State Sealing, It's been part of the Arkansas Development Authority's or the ADFA's legislation since 1987. Each year, Arkansas and every other state is given a finite allocation or authority to issue tax-exempt revenue bonds for housing, industrial development, solid waste recovery, student loans, and a variety of other private projects. The dollar amount of this allocation is based upon the population of the state, and that's how a cap or ceiling per state is established. The U.S. Treasury Department defines this as a volume cap. On several other occasions, the federal government established different allocations of volume cap for targeted purposes. These have included recovery zone bonds, Midwest disaster recovery, Gulf opportunity, 2008 housing super cap, and qualified energy conservation bonds, just to name a few. In each of these cases, the federal government limited the number of years in which to use these allocations or bonds financing authority. In 2009, the recovery zone bond allocations were declared for Arkansas by county. We lost time and the opportunity to finance qualified projects by not acting to aggregate the authority to the state level. We did make up some ground by working with the AEDC and utilizing an executive order from the governor's office to accomplish the same thing, absent having specific legislative authority. The amendment to the ADFA statute will allow ADFA to act immediately instead of waiting for a legislative session to try to put these allocations to work for Arkansas. This amendment provides any plans developed by ADFA for administration of existing or future allocations of volume cap to the political subdivisions of Arkansas would be subject to Arkansas Administration Procedures Act. This bill was a unanimous yes vote in insurance and commerce, and I would appreciate a good vote. Thank you. Members, you heard an explanation

▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Ed Garner Chair Unverified 12:48
there be any uh representative garner what purpose question you're recognized uh thank you mr speaker um represent baker i i'm not certain but i believe that my city has such an ordinance in place already what does your bill do that isn't already available to cities of the first and second class? In other words, are you writing a bill that cities can already have an ordinance to do exactly this? Well, that's a good question, but there are a nuisance ordinance in place if the cities choose to do it. The question becomes the overall process. I remind you that the the nuisance is a process. A nuisance don't happen just because somebody claims a nuisance. It has to be investigated. Investigation starts with the municipality. And when you say that I've got kids in danger because there are snakes running through a vacant, an inoperable vehicle. Municipal has to investigate. After the investigation, they have to file that with a court saying that it is a nuisance. The nuisance ordinance takes place and decides that if it is occupied property or if it's abandoned property, we need to take that course. If it's not unoccupied, if the property is occupied, then there would be a citation issued to that person that lived there. If the property is vacant, if it's an abandoned property, then the city has to issue that order to the property owner, which might not be the tenant, and ask them to clean up the property. Many times, a nuisance ordinance will go a year before you can, if it's real property, it takes a year before you can clean it up. During that time, a municipality, a mayor has to, what could be held for nonfeasance for not repairing that situation is dangerous to this municipality. And in doing so, they begin to accumulate costs. You cannot accumulate costs for private property, but you start a plan, if you may, as to what money is spent and why. Court has to give you the okay to do that. Now after the year when the property is being become a, where the climax of the nuisance come about, then a court, you have to take this to the court and say, we did these things because we were, we had a danger to the city. Now, for one city, you might have one or two of these cases a year, but for some of your bigger cities, you might have multiples of these cases. Just say the city of Little Rock. You might have one a week. That becomes 52 times a piece of property that has to be disposed of, and it might be a piece of property that somebody decide 51 weeks down the road that it's worth a lot of money, and you have to defend that. What this owners do is put it in the statute. Right now it's in the nuisance law that has to go through court through the nuisance, but it's not specified in the law. It's in the code, it's in the planning and zoning code, but it's not specified in the law. This specifies in the law so that a person can recoup their values. So help me understand this. By putting this in code, are you saying that this will shorten the time frame of the property owner to respond, that this could expedite this so that it doesn't take an entire year and go through the court system is that the reason for putting it in the code because i know that cities already have this as a nuisance code many cities do and your language is permissive it says may so is does your bill

Representative Karen S. Hopper Chair Unverified 19:57
recognized to explain the bill. thank you mr speaker colleagues house bill 1408 would prohibit high level level 2 sex offenders from living within 2,000 feet from a school public park youth center or daycare house bill 1408 only deals with high risk level twos those individuals that have a tendency and a desire towards children the offender was 18 years of age or older and the victim was age 14 or younger let me repeat that be very clear house bill 1408 only deals with high-risk level twos, those who have a tendency and a desire towards children. The offender was 18 years of age or older, and the victim was 14 years of age or younger. This bill is designed to help protect our children and our grandchildren. According to ACIC, the state has approximately 3,400 level two sex offenders. Approximately half of them, or about 1,700, are high-risk level two sex offenders. There is a grandfather provision in this bill. It does not affect those living in these areas now, only those in the future. The Department of correction cannot say how many will be affected by the high level 2 assessment because it is all based in the future, not those currently out. The best guess from the chairman of the DOC is five or six per year. Yes, it could make it harder for someone to parole out of prison to find a place to live, but again, do we want high-level sex offenders who, again, sex offenders who are high risk, who have a tendency toward children, who have been locked up for a long time living next door to parks, daycares, and schools. Again, this law is designed to protect our children, and I would appreciate a good vote. Members,

I've heard an explanation of the bill. Anyone wishing to speak against the bill? Representative Williams, you are recognized to come and speak against the bill.
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Darrin Williams Unverified 22:51
Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Members, I've come to speak against this bill, but let's make it clear that I'm not for sex offenders. I speak against this bill largely for two reasons. One, I think evidence-based research suggests that residency restrictions for sex offenders actually decreases public safety. Two, I have a concern for the financial burden to our corrections department, and I want to expound on those two points. I appreciate my good friend Representative Hopper for bringing this bill. She and I have talked about this. I'm speaking against this with her full knowledge. I just believe there's an unintended consequence in regard to this bill. I'd like to read from a study by Dr. Jill Levinson, who is one of the leading experts in the area of sex offender issues. Just a few sentences I'd like to read from her report. Residency restrictions create a shortage of housing options for sex offenders and force them to move to rural areas where they are likely to become increasingly isolated, have few employment opportunities, a lack of social support, a limited availability of social services and mental health treatment. Such restrictions can lead to homelessness, transience with interference with effective tracking, monitoring, and close probation supervision. Despite widespread popularity, there is no evidence that sex offender residency restrictions prevent sex crimes or increase public safety. In fact, disrupting offenders' stability and social bonds is likely to be in the public's best interest if it exacerbates the psychological stressors that can contribute to re-offending. suggests that residency restrictions lead to serious unintended consequences for offenders. Such current social policies like residency restrictions may contribute to dynamic risk factors for offenders in the community, ultimately becoming counterproductive, emotionally restrictive legislation based on fear and anger rather than research and data will not be effective can keep my community safe. The second reason I speak against this bill is for the burden it causes to our corrections department. Right now there are at least 50 level 2 sex offenders who are eligible for parole but have not been paroled because of the lack of place to put them. Not necessarily just because of this bill but because they have nowhere to go. This bill would restrict the ability to place these offenders back into society. So this bill, those 50 inmates who cannot be paroled right now, they're costing us one million dollars per year. Secondly, the Department of Community Corrections, they've recently received a grant, a re-entry grant. And through this grant, they've identified two locations that will accept level two sex offenders. One of those locations is actually located within 2,000 feet of a prohibited area. So if this bill passes, that's an additional burden on DCC because they will not be able to place those people in this place that is already ready to accept them. Again, I am not speaking for sex offenders. I'm speaking for evidence-based research, not emotional reaction. Level 2 is a moderate risk to reoffend. Currently in the law, Level 3 and Level 4 sex offenders are prohibited in where they can live. I suggest that we're going down a slippery slope, and we may be doing things that are counterproductive to our public safety and clearly a burden on our financial resources.

Speaker 28 27:17
to close for your bill?
▶ Play Suggest a correction Report an error
Representative Karen S. Hopper Chair Unverified 27:24
Yes, I would. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. In closing, it is important to not allow these, again, remember we're talking these high-risk level 2 sex offenders. Those sex offenders who have shown a tendency towards our children to be put in the way of temptation. That's what we're trying to avoid here. Why do alcohol and drug treatment programs encourage addicts to stay away from people and areas where they might fall into temptation? Why do we as parents monitor where our children go? Again, because we don't want our children to give into temptation. The same is important to keep those sex offenders who are high risk, those who have a tendency towards children, from living next to where children frequent, be it schools, daycares, or parks. To the argument that residency restrictions do not work, here's what I would have to say. How do we measure prevention? Can anyone tell you how many robberies didn't occur last night due to bars on the windows or extra police protection? The same could be argued that we won't know how many incidents of sexual abuse of children will be prevented. Not one solution will prevent child abuse. There are some restrictions and sanctions that will work while different sanctions and restrictions will work for other sex offenders. The question is this. Shouldn't we do everything possible to protect our children and our grandchildren? And I would ask for a good vote.

Members of ODAP is the licensing authority for all licensed drug and alcohol treatment programs in the state of Arkansas. And this bill is designed to give ODAP the authority to monitor those programs that gain licensure status by being nationally accredited. Right now, there's no provision in the law, in the current law, that give ODAP the authority to monitor these programs. Currently, there are 58 licensed programs in the state, and approximately 10 programs fall under this category. I met with Joe Hill's organization, and he informed me that this is just cleanup language to strengthen his agency and to bring by true transparency, and I would appreciate a favorable vote.

Representative Johnnie J. Roebuck Unverified 37:26
bill. Thank you, Mr. Speaker. Ladies and gentlemen, Act 416 was enacted in 2009, and at that time I told you that the bill was a government efficiency and transparency bill. It worked. ADHE was able to move all reports that we had required along with other agencies. They moved them into one report. It was posted on their website, and they met the deadline, so I commend them for meeting that deadline. Today, I bring you an extension of that act. During the past two years, we have examined all the reports, and we've noted duplications and unnecessary information. So this bill does two things. It moves the dates for reporting and for posting that report on the website to make it a little bit more efficient and to give a little bit more time, and then it eliminates 1,698 pages from that annual report.

Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. This House Bill 1449 simply adjusts the fee for a certified copy for an affidavit for collection of small estate for a distributee to adjust that fee to the same fee that is being collected under another section of the law. It's called the County and Probate Court Clerk's Fee Schedule. In that schedule, for any certified copy and seal, it's a $5 charge. That's what this bill does is simply to match that fee in this section of the law, and I'd appreciate a good vote. Any questions? Members, you heard an explanation of the bill.

Representative Betty Overbey Unverified 42:29
bill. Thank you, Mr. Speaker and members. Back in 2005, Representative George Overby presented this bill and passed it. There was – it really was a good bill, but at that time I was working in the revenue office, and it didn't take long for us to realize that there was a mistake in this bill. The, what happened is when you, when a dealer's license was suspended, then that, when the customer came in the revenue office to license that vehicle, the customer was punished for what the dealer did because they couldn't license that car. So all this is doing is taking the master tag and not suspending it, but suspending the extra tag so the customer can do their paperwork right and the dealer can also keep his business going. I'd appreciate a good vote. Thank you. Members, heard an explanation of the bill.
