___________________ moved that HB 1085 be amended as follows:
" Section 2. That § 9-55-5 be amended to read:
9-55-5. The mayor shall, with the approval of the governing body, appoint a business
improvement board consisting of property owners, residents, business operators or users of space
within the business area to be improved. If a business improvement district only consists of hotel and
motel properties, the business improvement board shall consist only of hotel and motel owners, or
an owner's designee, with rooms available for lodging within the business improvement district. The
governing body shall, by resolution, designate the boundaries of the business area prior to the time
of the appointment of the board. The board shall make recommendations to the governing body for
the establishment of a plan or plans for improvements in the business area. If the improvements to
be included in one business area offer benefits that cannot be equitably assessed together under this
chapter, more than one business improvement district as part of the same development plan for that
business area may be proposed. The board may make recommendations to the municipality as to the
use of any revenue collected pursuant to § 9-55-2. ".
