HB506 Moved to be Heard Next Week

We watched the live stream of Counties, Cities, and Towns Committee. A bill proposing ranked choice voting, HB 506 County manager plan; election of board members by instant runoff voting, was scheduled to be voted on. There were some questions about the bill's fiscal impact that were not able to be answered in committee. The bill will be heard next week instead, when the bill Patron can be present to clarify the points raised. We have another week to call this Committee and ask them to SUPPORT HB506!
