but that seems to be an integral part of the legislative process. What
I'd like to see more effort to ensure the committee's "perspective"
includes a true representative polling of the members' views. It seems
that many of the legislative positions supported have been heavily weighted in
favor of developers and owners and contrary to the interests of contractors and
other lienors. Of course, by voicing our opinions for change, the
expected response from the CLC would be that we should volunteer to become more
involved in the process. For my part, I am willing to put my time where
my mouth is and do just that.<u1:p></u1:p></span></font><o:p></o:p></p>

implied warranty today was timely, excellent and accurate. And please, I
am not trying to generate a discussion or responses with my following
comment. However, in response to Mr. Pickert's initial question
below, while I appreciate the fact that there exists a process,
unfortunately -- apart from resolving technical legal issues, which I
think Bar can encourage or provide recommendations -- I do not believe
that it is appropriate for the section (by way of either
legislative committee or otherwise as a section) to put itself
in the position of picking "winners" and "loosers" or
taking "sides" on very important and legitimate policy issues in
the Legislature, particularly those where construction law interests and
practice perspectives differ on evolving areas of the law. Keith Hetrick</span></font><u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></p>

two bills in which we were actively involved this legislative session - the
construction lien bill (HB 897) and the construction warranties bill (formerly
SB 1196, which was laid on the table in favor of the House version - HB
1013). We supported to former and opposed the latter. Both bills
passed the legislature last week and are headed for the Governor's desk.
Copies of both bills are attached.</span></font><u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></p>

achievements in the construction lien bill include: (1) elimination of
the conflict between the various statute of limitations provisions governing
actions on payment bonds (see lines 77-91 of HB 897); (2) elimination of
language added last year that clouds the issue of when a notice of commencement
expires (see lines 396-397). Also, the AGC inserted a provision in the
bill which now requires the state, any county or any municipality to (a) open
sealed bids in a competition solicitation at a public meeting conducted per
286.066, F.S.; (b) announce at the meeting the name of each bidder and the
price submitted; and (c) make available upon request the name of each bidder
and the price submitted.</span></font><u1:p></u1:p><o:p></o:p></p>
