Plain-language change summary

The amendment adds a reference to the Joint Favorable report on HB 6948, indicating it has received a positive recommendation. It removes previous text that specifically mentioned expanding regional economic development by allowing districts to apply for financial assistance for projects in their development plans. The practical effect is that the remaining language now focuses on formalizing the bill without detailing the specific purpose or goals related to the financial assistance.
