The Senate Veteran Affairs & Military Installations Committee, which Senator Van de Putte chairs, voted on this bill on April 22nd. Senator Huffman was the only member of the committee to vote against SB 2222. He also voted against similar bill, SB 2223 by Van de Putte, and SB 2439 by Uresti.
SB 2222 would allow a county with unincorporated area and a city with extraterritorial jurisdiction located within 5 miles of a military installation to create a “regional military sustainability commission” (RMSC). This commission would establish "compatible development standards" and review new projects within 2 miles of a military installation (3 miles if created during flight training); SB 2223 would allow a “defense community” that includes a city of at least 1.1 million to create a RMSC.
