Version: SB 353
Contact: Darwin Peterson, 465-1881
Action: 03-15-04: Senate Floor » House
SB 353 unanimously passed the Senate March 15. It repeals a section of Ch. 92, SLA 1986, which required the Court System to provide a day-care facility in the Rabinowitz Courthouse in Fairbanks for the use of employees, jurors and witnesses. Legislation passed in 1986 authorized construction of a new courthouse and required a day-care facility. The Court issued a request for proposals, but it was non-responsive because a private day-care facility is already located within two blocks of the new courthouse. With no need for the day-care facility, SB 353 proposes to repeal the statutory requirement, for a general fund savings of $350,000.
