What changed between versions

Reprint 1 → As Enrolled · 3 edits · May 31, 2025
MINOR
The bill was finalized into law by adding the missing text for the Task Force's duties and amending the official report submission requirements. The final version clarifies that the Task Force must submit reports to the Legislative Counsel Bureau for transmittal to the Joint Interim Standing Committee on Growth and Infrastructure, whereas the draft version did not specify the receiving committee. Additionally, the final text removed a provision stating that the bill's reporting requirements were exempt from certain state laws.
Scope change
The scope of the bill's applicability remained the same, as the core duties of the Transit-to-Trails Task Force were already defined in the draft version.
REQUIREMENT

Added specific instructions for the Task Force to submit its annual report to the Director of the Legislative Counsel Bureau for transmittal to the Joint Interim Standing Committee on Growth and Infrastructure.

Removed the provision stating that the bill's reporting requirements are exempt from NRS 218D.380, which governs the submission of reports to the Legislature.
