Bill > SB1620

This bill modifies the membership and leadership of the Arizona Space Commission's board of directors, reducing the number of appointed members from seven to six, and designates the lieutenant governor as the chairperson of the board, who will also serve as a nonvoting advisory member alongside the governor, president of the senate, and speaker of the house of representatives. The bill also clarifies that these legislative and executive leaders will not be counted for quorum purposes and removes the requirement for the board to elect its own chairperson. Additionally, it specifies that existing board members will continue to serve their current terms, with new appointments following the updated structure after the bill takes effect on December 31, 2026.
