SUMMARY AS INTRODUCED:

Study; land acquisitions by Department of Transportation. Directs the Senate Finance and the House Appropriations Committees to examine the feasibility of transferring the responsibility for acquiring property for highway purposes from the Department of Transportation to the Department of General Services.

This is a recommendation of the joint subcommittee studying eminent domain issues.
