Contact Respondent Dept Updated Priority Recommendation <br />Eric Jones PW-ADM 01/24/2011 Pri 3 Support <br /> <br />Comments: A perennial effort to limit road damage on Oregon roads. This bill would likely reduce <br />the use of studded tires (because of the onerous and costly requirements to obtain a <br />permit to use snow tires). It also could result in additional funds for Eugene to fix streets <br />damaged by studded tires (the permit fees would go the State Highway Trust Fund, of <br />which Eugene gets a share). <br /> <br /> <br />HB 2653 <br /> <br />Relating Clause: Relating to justice courts. <br /> <br />Title: Expands collection mechanisms that Collections Unit of Department of Revenue may use <br />to collect judgments in criminal actions assigned to unit by justice courts. <br /> <br />Sponsored by: Introduced and printed pursuant to House Rule 12.00.

If the bill also applied to Municipal <br />Courts it could prove to be a useful and effective collection tool. <br /> <br /> <br />HB 2672 <br /> <br />Relating Clause: Relating to crime; declaring an emergency. <br /> <br />Title: Requires peace officer to obtain and preserve public record relevant to criminal <br />investigation and to disclose to district attorney existence of record. <br /> <br />Sponsored by: Introduced and printed pursuant to House Rule 12.00. Presession filed (at the request of <br />House Interim Committee on Judiciary) <br /> <br />URL: http://www.leg.state.or.us/11reg/measpdf/hb2600.dir/hb2672.intro.pdf <br /> <br />Contact Respondent Dept Updated Priority Recommendation <br />Chuck Tilby EPD-ADM 01/18/2011 Pri 1 Oppose <br /> <br />Comments: This bill appears to require that a police officer "obtain" any public record that pertains to <br />a criminal investigation. This record must be disclosed to the DA and retained unless the <br />DA authorizes destruction. At first read, this appears to be what officers normally do. <br />However, the mandate in the bill is what makes it not workable. First, any "public record" <br />referred to here would be a copy of a public record, so the original record would never be <br />26 <br /> <br /> <br />
