Thursday, May 24, 1973 Th* Nyssa Oat« City Journal, Nyssa, Oregon LEGISLATIVE REPORT By Rep. D.E. (I)enny) Jones This is the 19th legislative report from Rep. Denny Jones. The new Revenue Committee has been holding their regular scheduled meetings. I visited with two members of the com mittee and was informed that they would be coming out next week with a proposal for the rest of us to work on. I think the general feeling is that they will up the basic school sup port money to at least 40% and possibly up to 50%. They are undecidi'd at this time just what to do about the homestead exemption--perhaps it may be along the lines of what is al ready on th»' books, with some possible changes. There is a possibility also that farm ma chinery may t>e included as in ventory and phased out under the existing inventory sche dule. From Monday's calendar of bills on final passage 1 will go through and list a few of the bills that passed or failed that I think w<aild he of in terest to you. HOUSE BILL 2478, which passed, would al low the Oregon Liquor Con trol Commission to issue li censes for wine to tie pur chased for large groups such as conventions, fairs, picnics, et. These are one-day licenses. HOUSE BILL 2697, which fai led, would prohibit prisoners in county or city jails from be ing assigned to public workpro jects outside jails. Ther»' was a motion to reconsider «» this bill, which passed, so this bill was rereferred to the Ju diciary Committee. HB 2972, which passed, allows county clerks to raise their record- ing fees. On Tuesday the big hassle that day was on HB 2282, ttw very unpopular, at least in our part of the state, all-terrain vehicle bill This bill passed by just th»- required numtier of votes Tue .dav- -31 aye votes--with lots of discussion on this, I spoke in »»pposition to it. This is going to tie real hard to administer--it is bound to cause a lot erf trouble Though I am not opposed to some re gulations, I think this is trying to go too far. The bill was re- considered on Wednesday, but it also passed again. In the regular Agriculture Committee meeting last Tues day we gave a report on the progress of the Tansy Ragwort weed budget. There had been a request in for a million dol lars for research on Tansy Rag wort and what can tie done with it. It’s spreading real rapidly in Western Oregon and causing great lasses in cattle and hor ses and some sheep who would die after eating this weed. We recommended that we give $212,000 as a fund to study how the weed can tie controlled. SENATE BIL1 117 was also considered in committee. This is a bill to allow counties to create control areas for va rious problems such as weeds and insects, primarily insects. It was set aside to do a littb- more work on the amendments. HOUSF BILL 3196 was voted out "do pass". This is a bill deleting the provision that al lows the state to pay a bounty on seals at the mouth of the Columbia River, which is the only place it applies to. In the last two years the Federal go vernment passed a law to pro hibit the [>aying of bounty on seals. The purpose of this bill is compliance with Federal law so that Federal funds would not be withheld for the Fish Com mission budget. HOUSF B1LI 3055 was considered. This is the Soil a Water Conservation Commission bill that is real controversial as far as farmers are concerned because there are no goals or guidelines set out in It, and there Is a pos sibility that it might be real tougti to comply with some of the things in this bill. There was a motion to hold it over and assign it to th«- interim com mittee for a study in the hopes that maybe it could be ir'«ed out to where it would Un workable. Then It could come back to the next legislature. SENATE BILL 265 was voted out "do pass” as amended. This is a bill to allow private fish hatcheries to be established at the coast and in the mouths of some of the rivers there. There was a feeling that maybe there I Adrian School Sunday evening.
