The resolution SCR1031 proposes an amendment to the Arizona Constitution regarding the office of the State Mine Inspector. It seeks to resolve conflicting provisions established by two propositions passed in 1992: Proposition 101, which created the office and mandated that the Mine Inspector be elected for four-year terms, and Proposition 107, which limited the Mine Inspector to two-year terms for a maximum of four consecutive terms. The resolution aims to repeal the conflicting section from Proposition 107, thereby allowing the Mine Inspector to serve four-year terms without the restrictions imposed by the earlier proposition.

If approved by voters, the resolution will amend Article XIX of the Arizona Constitution, establishing the office of the Mine Inspector with a clear four-year term structure. The Secretary of State is tasked with submitting this proposition to voters at the next general election, and the amendment will take effect upon voter approval and proclamation by the Governor. There is no anticipated fiscal impact on the state General Fund associated with this legislation.
