You thank you appreciate that. uh Do we have anything from any of the people on the committee before we get started, gonna be very short today I will take the opportunity as a as the chairman to say. One thing: I'm real happy to have my intern with us today. Miss sherry, sampson, she's, helping us back here today appreciate her being here. If nothing further we'll get onto this very lengthy calendar here, two bills. So anyway item number one hb one one. One. Nine has been taken off notice off notice.

Thank you, chairman motion.

A

Property second,.

C

And committee, thank you so much. um We have it's my understanding and I'll defer to you, mr chairman. If you want to take up your amendment before we go into it or I can.

A

Thank you, mr chairman, lady. Yes, we uh we noticed yesterday real late that we uh I had a little correctional area on some time frame on this on this bill. So at this time we had to make another amendment. So this time I will ask the committee if I could get a motion a second to to uh uh take up an untimely filed amendment.

A

Oh it's been motion. Second, to take up the untimely vitamin, all those in favor say: aye aye, all those opposed, no okay. We can uh take up the untimely filed amendment now uh and uh madam chair. I have uh on this and I will proceed to go ahead and we'll put this on the on the bill. Then you can explain it. If you don't care. I would like to introduce uh amendment 17339 to be added to house bill 2392..

A

Do I hear a motion probably boasting a second all those in favor say aye, all those opposed. No we're on the on the uh amendment now has been added to the bill, so you're in proper form by madam chair later, you may explain your bill now.

C

All right, thank you so much, and uh what this does is simply a date change to what we're trying to do here for the memphis graceland tdz uh situation with uh covid.

C

We never dreamed of coping, but also we didn't have the foresight to uh see how, if our tourism and our retail were not open, even though we did really well with our internet sales, this hurt what was happening to the places that depended on people coming right to them like graceland, and so this is in an effort to help them uh it'll, be a calculation of the base rate and goes back to when the internet sales were not considered, uh and so you know they want to get caught up and be able to keep paying and and do what they promised they would do.

C

But I was doing I was just curious myself. I went to a high school in memphis in hillcrest, we lived in graceland subdivision, so I'm very familiar with the whole area and with you know how much elvis means to people all around the world, and um it was interesting to me. I went back and just googled, you know what was the attendance just for the vigil of his death in august and 2017 came up, so I just went with that number.

C

It was 60 000 people that came for that one event and then during the pandemic in 2020, when everything was they did have it, but it was very, very restricted. You know, with social distancing and all 750 people, so you can see how devastating that would be to what uh what they were, depending on to be in person sales, tax versus internet. So your amendment fixes a date and we are happy with that and I'll hush and see if there's any other questions or did I cause more confusion, but I'm here to help clarify anything.

C

You may have been.

A

Called thank you. Question's been called for all those in favor of house bill, 2392, moving on to full, say, aye, all right, all those opposed no bill moves on to full committee. Thank you, madam chair.
