SB245 - An Act To Amend Titles 10 And 29 Of The Delaware Code Relating To Residential Mortgage Foreclosure And The Office Of Foreclosure Prevention And Financial Education.
Russ Huxtable, Elizabeth Lockman, David P. Sokola
Last updated 3 months ago
20 Co-Sponsors
The Office of Foreclosure Prevention and Financial Education and the Residential Mortgage Foreclosure Mediation Program were created in the wake of the 2008 financial crisis to assist homeowners at risk of foreclosure or already navigating the foreclosure process. Originally intended as temporary programs, the need for these programs is as critical as ever for those facing the loss of their homes. The programs have proven to be important resources in preserving home ownership and educating homeowners on their rights and responsibilities in times of economic contraction and in times of economic expansion. As a result of their successes, the General Assembly has extended the programs multiple times. It is clear that the need for these programs will continue for the foreseeable future. In recognition of this reality, this Act removes the expiration dates from the programs.

HB371 - An Act To Amend Title 18 Of The Delaware Code Relating To The State Fire Prevention Commission, Fire Companies Or Departments, And The State Insurance Coverage Office.
Kimberly Williams, John Walsh, Edward S. Osienski
Last updated 5 months ago
15 Co-Sponsors
This Act changes how the Insurance Commissioner and the State Treasurer provide for distributions from taxes collected by the Insurance Commissioner to be made to fire companies or departments in Delaware. The current method for reporting, calculating, and making distributions to fire companies or departments is complex to administer and can lead to incorrect payments. This Act simplifies the reporting process and provides a new method for calculating the funds distributed to fire departments and companies in the City of Wilmington, New Castle County outside of Wilmington, Kent County, and Sussex County. Specifically, it reduces the number of payments per year from two to one, gives the Insurance Commissioner more time to ensure the accuracy of insurer-reported financial data, and establishes detailed guidelines for how the funds should be distributed to the various fire companies or departments. This Act also makes changes to the reporting requirements related to payments made by the State Treasurer to the State Insurance Coverage Office.
