RULING BY THE PRESIDENT PRO TEMPORE

President Pro Tempore: “In ruling upon the point of order raised by Senator Padden that amendment number 418 by Senator Conway expands the scope and object of Senate Bill 6022, the President finds and rules as follows: Senate Bill 6022 is a narrow, one section bill that focuses exclusively on the definition of third degree assault. It provides that when an assault victim is an employee of Western State Hospital, Eastern State Hospital or the Child Study Treatment Center, the penalty is increased to the felony level. Amendment number 418 by Senator Conway focuses entirely on collective bargaining.  Among other things, it applies the Public Employees’ Collective Bargaining Act to employees of Eastern and Western State hospitals, including mediation and arbitration for employee safety issues. While one might argue that both the amendment and the underlying bill deal very broadly with the issue of employee safety, the underlying bill is narrow, making it much more difficult to find an amendment to be within its limited scope and object. In this case, the body of the underlying bill limits its scope to a definition in a criminal statute. At this point, the President would like to remind the members that while the title of the bill may be important, and even controlling in other bodies, in this body, the President looks to the scope and object of the bill itself, without regard to the bill’s title.

.For these reasons, the President, finds that the amendment does change the scope and object of the bill and Senator Padden’s point of order is well taken.”

      The Senate resumed consideration of Senate Bill No. 6022 which had been deferred on February 12, 2014.

"NEW SECTION.  Sec. 1. (1) The legislature recognizes that all Washington residents benefit from the unique aesthetic, recreational, and economic opportunities that are derived from the state's aquatic resources, including its navigable waters and shoreline areas.  The legislature also recognizes that, as affirmed in chapter 212, Laws of 2011, existing floating homes are an important cultural amenity and an element of the state's maritime history and economy.  The 2011 legislation, which clarified the legal status of floating homes, was intended to ensure the vitality and long-term survival of existing floating single-family home communities.

      (2) The legislature finds that further clarification of the status of other residential uses on water that meet specific requirements and share important cultural, historical, and economic commonalities with floating homes, is necessary.

      (3) The legislature, therefore, intends to:  Preserve the existence and vitality of current, floating on-water residential uses; establish greater clarity and regulatory uniformity for these uses; and respect the well-established authority of local governments to determine compliance with regulatory requirements applicable to their jurisdiction.

Sec. 2. RCW 90.58.270 and 2011 c 212 s 2 are each amended to read as follows:

      (1) Nothing in this ((statute)) section shall constitute authority for requiring or ordering the removal of any structures, improvements, docks, fills, or developments placed in navigable waters prior to December 4, 1969, and the consent and authorization of the state of Washington to the impairment of public rights of navigation, and corollary rights incidental thereto, caused by the retention and maintenance of said structures, improvements, docks, fills or developments are hereby granted:  PROVIDED, That the consent herein given shall not relate to any structures, improvements, docks, fills, or developments placed on tidelands, shorelands, or beds underlying said waters which are in trespass or in violation of state statutes.

      (2) Nothing in this section shall be construed as altering or abridging any private right of action, other than a private right which is based upon the impairment of public rights consented to in subsection (1) ((hereof)) of this section.

      (3) Nothing in this section shall be construed as altering or abridging the authority of the state or local governments to suppress or abate nuisances or to abate pollution.

      (4) Subsection (1) of this section shall apply to any case pending in the courts of this state on June 1, 1971 relating to the removal of structures, improvements, docks, fills, or developments based on the impairment of public navigational rights.

      (5)(a) A floating home permitted or legally established prior to January 1, 2011, must be classified as a conforming preferred use.

      (b) For the purposes of this subsection:

      (i) "Conforming preferred use" means that applicable development and shoreline master program regulations may only impose reasonable conditions and mitigation that will not effectively preclude maintenance, repair, replacement, and remodeling of existing floating homes and floating home moorages by rendering these actions impracticable.

      (ii) "Floating home" means a single‑family dwelling unit constructed on a float, that is moored, anchored, or otherwise secured in waters, and is not a vessel, even though it may be capable of being towed.

(6)(a) A floating on-water residence legally established prior to July 1, 2014, must be considered a conforming use and accommodated through reasonable shoreline master program regulations, permit conditions, or mitigation that will not effectively preclude maintenance, repair, replacement, and remodeling of existing floating on-water residences and their moorages by rendering these actions impracticable.
      (b) For the purpose of this subsection, "floating on-water residence" means any floating structure other than a floating home, as defined under subsection (5) of this section, that:  (i) Is designed or used primarily as a residence on the water and has detachable utilities; and (ii) whose owner or primary occupant has held an ownership interest in space in a marina, or has held a lease or sublease to use space in a marina, since a date prior to July 1, 2014.

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE

Senator Kline:  “Mr. President, I would like to address the clipping that I’ve circulated among the group. It’s not appropriate to any particular legislation that’s on our agendas or our orders of consideration today but it is appropriate to one of the concerns that we have in this body about law enforcement, about our responsibility to the citizens, to the police and to the public security for maintaining our police officers. There is I think sometimes endemic in our culture, a kind of inequality not only along racial lines but along economic lines as well. And we as a legislature are required to keep tabs and sometimes keep tight control on those governmental officers who have contact with folks in the way that you see illustrated, a little graphically, right here. There’s an old saying that the law in all its majesty prevents the rich as well as the poor from sleeping under bridges and begging crusts of bread. We I think would do well to understand the way ordinary, hardworking and very poor folks see the world. Looking from the bottom up it’s a lot different than we sometimes see it from our perch right here in the Legislature. Thank you.”
