Dear Speaker Prosser:
As Chairperson of the Assembly State Affairs Committee, I have appointed a "Subcommittee on The State Capitol".
I will serve as the Co-Chairperson of this Subcommittee along with Representative Jim Baumgart who will also serve as Co-Chairperson to promote a bi-partisan effort, as these issues are bi-partisan. Other members of the committee include Representatives Terry Musser, Rudy Silbaugh, Wayne Wood, and Leon Young - the ranking Democrat of the State Affairs Committee.
The "Subcommittee on The State Capitol" has been formed to bring forth legislation relating to specific issues concerning the State Capitol building including an update of state statutes 16.842 - the "State Capitol View Preservation" law, in particular LRB 3124. The "Subcommittee on The State Capitol" will also take up the issue of the State Capitol's reconstruction project as it concerns Historic Preservation, in particular LRB 2706. The "Subcommittee on The State Capitol" may also take up several other legislative proposals that relate to the State Capitol Building's view, history, protection, image, use and purpose.
With kindest best wishes, I am
Sincerely yours,
William D. Lorge
