The Senate Housing and Development Committee voted April 28 to advance House Bill 2356A to the Senate floor with a due‑pass recommendation. The bill would provide that when a city within a metropolitan service district annexes territory that lies within the district’s urban growth boundary, that territory is annexed to the metropolitan service district without further process.

Committee staff read a brief summary of the bill into the record noting the provision applies to lands annexed on or after the act’s effective date and that a revenue impact statement had been issued and the measure had no fiscal impact. Vice Chair Anderson moved to report the bill to the floor with a due‑pass recommendation; the clerk called the roll. Senators recorded as voting aye in the transcript were Brown, Nash, Patterson, Vice Chair Anderson and Chair Pham; the motion passed.

No amendments or conditions were recorded during the April 28 work session; the committee announced a senator would carry the bill to the floor.
