so I've done that and then the other part of this is just to add clarity to a part of the bill that was pointed out to me that may be a little bit ambiguous. There's a motion to adopt the amendment. All favor. Opposed. Roger Memon has been adopted represent warn you're recognized to present your bill. Thank you Mr chairman. This bill is going to be limited in scope and not affect most of you but those in counties under the SEC order or impacted in those counties we do not have school choice as most of you know what both Bruce Cozart and I live in districts that are still restricted. With the advancement and coupling this with the advancement of technology is become laser precise where district lines VOL homeowners who bought in certain districts have found they are no longer in those districts even though they bought per the assessor's records the district lines now cut straight through their property for those homeowners whose principal residence and that was part of the amendment to clarify. Whose principal residence or parcel lies within two or more districts the children can go to whichever of those districts they choose regardless of where the house is situated right now basically if the school district line goes straight through the house it is basically where the majority of the House sets as to where the child has to go to school. So and I I had a perfect situation. Great family who bought House it's always been classified in the lakeside School District and all of a sudden their daughter senior year they get their new real estate tax bill in there in hot springs school district and they're like what we've we've realtor sold us in lakeside the Bills we'd gotten of always been like side and they go E. L. well the technology is now so advanced it was early in that district so this just gives them the ability to choose which district they get to go to rather than having problems with having to switch at any point. So I would appreciate a good. Thank you represent Warner then questions by the committee. We have a motion the proper time during his or anyone the audience who would like to speak on the bill but no one signed up. All right we have a motion do pass as amended what's will committee. All in favor. All opposed. Congratulations are minority pastor bill thank you Mr chairman thank you Committee. So are there any other questions the. Items on the agenda were passing over representive roses bill as well I believe Seeing none. The committee is adjourned.
