The committee held a hearing to conduct an oversight review of Department of Natural Resources (DNR) land conveyances to AIDEA and AHFC.

The committee voted to issue a subpoena compelling the DNR Commissioner to appear and provide responsive documentation regarding development plans, policy rationales, and legal considerations for these land conveyances.
