AI Summary
This bill establishes special procedures for the consideration of House Bill No. 4331, which aims to modernize municipal finance and government. It allows amendments to this bill to be filed electronically with the Clerk of the House by a specific deadline, June 14, 2016, at 5 PM, with exceptions for amendments from the committee on ways and means. The Clerk will notify sponsors of received amendments and assign them numbers, and printed copies of these electronic amendments will be considered official. The bill also clarifies that no unrelated propositions can be introduced under the guise of further amendments, but members can remove their own amendments from a consolidated amendment to offer them individually before the consolidated amendment is voted on. Importantly, consolidated amendments cannot be divided, and any amendment not following these special rules will be considered withdrawn.
