Representative T. Carroll called the committee to order. He welcomed those in attendance and discussed some guidelines for testimony.

Representative Lindstrom, prime sponsor, summarized the provisions of HB 06-1027, which clarifies that municipal court marshals and public transit officers are peace officers and, thus, are required to receive training from the Peace Officer Standards and Training Board (P.O.S.T.). Under the bill's provisions, reserve officer training can no longer substitute for peace officer training. Representative Lindstrom described the duties of municipal court marshals and public transit officers.

The following people testified on the bill:

He spoke about the parties and the process involved that decided upon the changes proposed by the bill.

01:47 PM -- Ms. Peg Ackerman, representing the County Sheriffs of Colorado, spoke in favor of the bill and offered to answer questions.
