On Wednesday, May 20th, the House Defense & Veterans' Affairs Committee reported SB 2223 by Van de Putte favorably. This bill would allow a “defense community” that includes a city of at least 1.1 million 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).
A very similar bill, SB 2222 by Van de Putte (House Sponsor Corte), has been on the House Major State Calendar since Thursday, May 21st and should soon come to the House floor. This bill would allow a county with unincorporated area and a city with extraterritorial jurisdiction located within 5 miles of a military installation to create a RMSC.
