Bill Text
What changed in the latest version
14 added · 16 removedPlain-language change summary
The updated version of Bill HB 3157 removes the requirement for the Department to work with the Department of Agriculture in notifying local governments about food deserts. Instead, it focuses solely on the Department's responsibility to produce an annual report detailing the locations of food deserts and related health issues. This change simplifies the process and places the onus on a single department to provide the necessary data, which could improve efficiency in addressing food access issues. Ultimately, this matters because clearer communication and streamlined reporting may lead to better responses to health disparities in food deserts.
HB3157 EngrossedEnrolled LRB100 10257 SLF 20443 b AN ACT concerning State government.
The Department, in cooperation with the Department of Agriculture, shall notify respective municipal governmental bodies identified as food deserts and provide an annual report to the General Assembly by December 31 of each year that identifies the locations of food deserts within the State and provides information about health issues associated with food deserts.
