Sir:

Your Committee on Transportation, to which was referred S.B. No. 80, S.D. 2, entitled:

The purpose of this measure is to make an emergency appropriation to finance the relocation of transmission facilities for the "I Heart Radio" aerial.

As affirmed by the record of votes of the members of your Committee on Transportation that is attached to this report, your Committee is in accord with the intent and purpose of S.B. No. 80, S.D. 2, and recommends that it pass Second Reading and be referred to your Committee on Finance.

Respectfully submitted on behalf of the members of the Committee on Transportation,
