Additionally, as Chair of the Environmental Quality Committee and member of several other Committees: Budget, Energy – Utilities – and Communications, Natural Resources and Water, and Transportation and Housing, we will hear his insights on state water reform, mandated renewable energy use, and lowering the threshold to allow school parcel taxes to name a few.
