Chairwoman Warren opened the hearing on HB2127.  Jason Thompson, Revisor's Office, provided an overview of the bill and stood for questions (Attachment 1)

Mark Knackendoffel testified in support of HB2127.  He stated with the decline in print newspaper, the deadlines have become difficult to comply with.  At the same time, it is extremely difficult to choose a hearing date within a 7-day window.  He stated HB2127 would follow the uniform approach by amending K.S.A.59-2209 and 59-2308 to require that a hearing or sale date be set no earlier than 10 days after the last publication notice.  Mr Knackendoffel stood for questions.  (Attachment 2)

There being no further conferees, the hearing on HB2127 was closed.
