Summary:
The House opened with the Pledge of Allegiance and then took up committee reports recommending suspension of Joint Rule 12 for two House petitions from Colleen M. Garry: one to establish an opt-out admissions lottery process for charter schools, referred to the Committee on Education, and another concerning income tax deductions for certain school expenses, referred to the Committee on Revenue. The House approved the suspensions and then recessed subject to the call of the Chair.
The House later received a Senate petition filed by Cindy F. Friedman and Andrea Joy Campbell to strengthen health care protections in the Commonwealth. The House concurred in suspending Joint Rule 12 for the petition, but on motion of Mr. Day it was referred in non-concurrence to the Committee on Judiciary rather than the Committee on Health Care Financing.
The House then adopted an order setting its next meeting for Thursday at 11 a.m. and adjourned to meet then in an informal session.

Bills:
S0962
Summary:
The Senate Committee on Agriculture met with a quorum present and took up SB 962, a bill by Senator Bradley relating to affordable housing and zoning preemption. Senator Bradley explained that the bill is intended to protect working farms and farm operations by clarifying that farms are excluded from the definitions of commercial, mixed use, and industrial use for purposes of certain multifamily residential development authorizations. He cited concerns from Clay County and similar agricultural areas where existing zoning classifications and farm-related activities, such as produce stands, could be unintentionally affected by the prior definitions.
There were no questions, appearance cards, or debate on the bill. Senator Bradley waived closing, and the committee proceeded to a roll call vote. SB 962 was reported favorably.
After the bill vote, members exchanged brief closing remarks and thanks to the chair and committee. Senator Bernard then moved to adjourn, and the meeting ended.
