Sponsored By: Sponsored by Representative ROBLAN (Presession filed.) <br /> Respondent Dept Updated Priority Policy Policy No Recommendation <br />Contact <br />Mike Penwell CS-FAC 01/14/2010 Pri 2 Oppose <br />Comments: The intent of this bill is laudable as it tightens the requirements for a certified backflow <br />tester with appropriate exemptions for small-scale residential plumbing systems. As <br />written, however, there is no "grandfather clause" for certified backflow testers who are <br />not journeyman plumbers or apprentice plumbers. This unfairly penalizes competent, <br />capable backflow testers who have spent years testing, installing, repairing, and <br />maintaining systems that they will no longer be authorized to work on. If the bill is <br />amended <br /> to include a grandfather clause, then the City should support it. <br />HB 3623 <br />Relating Clause: Relating to human trafficking information; and declaring an emergency. <br />Title: Requires Oregon Liquor Control Commission to include informational materials <br />regarding human trafficking with certain license renewal notices, if materials are <br />supplied by nonprofit organization. Applies to license renewal notices that <br />commission sends before January 1, 2012. Declares emergency, effective on <br />passage. <br />Sponsored By: Sponsored by Representative BARTON (Presession filed.) <br />Contact Respondent Dept Updated Priority Policy Policy No Recommendation <br />Brenda Wilson CMO-IGR 01/11/2010 Pri 3 Support <br />Comments: Although does not directly impact the city, this bill has broad policy considerations and I <br />think the IGR may want to weigh in. <br />HB 3625 <br />Relating Clause: Relating to Maternal Mental Health Awareness Month; and declaring an <br />emergency. <br />Title: Designates May of each year as Maternal Mental Health Awareness Month. <br />Declares emergency, effective on passage. <br />Sponsored By: Sponsored by Representative TOMEI (Presession filed.) <br />Contact Respondent Dept Updated Priority Policy Policy No Recommendation <br />Brenda Wilson CMO-IGR 01/11/2010 Pri 3 Support <br />Comments: Although does not directly impact the city, this bill has broad policy considerations and I <br />think the IGR may want to weight in. <br />13 | Page <br /> <br />
