ST. GEORGE, Utah — For the first time, the Utah State Legislature is meeting"Off the Hill" for its interim session.
Lawmakers are meeting at Utah Tech University, holding hearings on issues and pending bills. While legislators have taken field trips across the state to visit communities and see issues up close, this is the first time the entire legislature has moved away from Capitol Hill. "St. George is experiencing problems that we don’t really — we think we understand, we may not acutely," Senate President J. Stuart Adams told FOX 13 News."Their water problems, the infrastructure problems, their transportation problems, all the problems they’re experiencing. It’s not only the fastest growing spots in Utah, it’s one of the fastest growing spots in the United States.
On Monday, committees heard discussions about small-scale nuclear technology, water needs, tax issues and rural film incentives. Rep. Joseph Elison, R-Hurricane, said it was good to see his colleagues in St. George.
