Summary: House Bill H 4628 (Order extending reporting deadline for Municipalities and Regional Government)

Purpose

H 4628 is a procedural House measure that extends the deadline for the Committee on Municipalities and Regional Government to complete its final report on two existing House documents. Specifically, it grants the committee until Wednesday, December 17, 2025 to report on House Documents 3923 and 4152, notwithstanding House Rule 27.

Key Provisions

  • Extends the reporting deadline for the Committee on Municipalities and Regional Government to December 17, 2025.
  • The extension is available “notwithstanding the provisions of House Rule 27,” meaning it overrides the standard deadline rule for this purpose.
  • The measure concerns only the committee’s ability to finalize its report on current House documents 3923 and 4152.

Impact and Affected Parties

  • Affected entities: The Committee on Municipalities and Regional Government and the authors/holders of House Documents 3923 and 4152.
  • Practical effect: Allows more time for consideration and final reporting on the two documents, which can impact the legislative calendar and progression of those items in the House.
  • Public impact: Minimal direct fiscal or policy impact; primarily a scheduling/procedural adjustment to ensure thorough review.

Procedural and Timeline Details

  • Introduced: October 20, 2025.
  • Legislative actions (all on October 20, 2025): Referred to the House Rules committee; the committee reported ought to be adopted; Rules suspended; Adopted.
  • Status: Adopted by the House on October 20, 2025.
  • Related legislation: Related Bill HD 5252 is noted as a related bill (HD 5252 replaces), indicating a potential replacement or alternative track in the same legislative context.

Notes for Context

  • This is a narrow, housekeeping measure designed to accommodate the legislative schedule rather than to alter policy or funding.
  • Enactment would affect only the reporting timeline for the specified documents within the House; Senate action (if required) would determine final status as part of the overall bill process.
