Repeals the statues relating to the Residential Utility Consumer Board (RUCB).

 

History

            In 1999, the Office of the Auditor General (OAG) found that RUCB had not effectively fulfilled the requirements of its statuary mandates.  During the 2000 legislative session, a bill (H.B. 2240) to continue the RUCB was held in the House of Representatives, effectively terminating the Board.  The Board has not met since March of 2000.  Although the Board has been terminated the language that references its existence remain in statue.

·                      Repeals statues relating to the Residential Utility Consumer Board.
