What was not decided here: the executive actions advanced the bills out of committee; full House floor action, further amendments or appropriations (when relevant) remain possible.
Key procedural note: HB 87 was amended in committee before passage; the amendment (HB 87.1.1) inserted date language related to property purchased before May 10, 2009, per testimony from Fish, Wildlife & Parks.
Ending: After executive action concluded, the committee moved to a property tax training session.
