The resolution SCR1031 proposes an amendment to the Arizona Constitution regarding the office of the State Mine Inspector. It seeks to repeal the conflicting provisions established by Proposition 107 in 1992, which mandated that the State Mine Inspector serve two-year terms for a maximum of four consecutive terms. Instead, the resolution sets a new term limit of two consecutive four-year terms for the State Mine Inspector, with the new limit applying to terms beginning on or after January 1, 2027. Additionally, it stipulates that any individual who has served the maximum number of terms must wait at least one full term before being eligible to serve again.

The resolution requires voter approval and mandates that the Secretary of State submit the proposition to the electorate at the next general election. If approved, the changes will take effect upon proclamation by the Governor. The resolution does not anticipate any fiscal impact on the state General Fund. Overall, SCR1031 aims to clarify and streamline the term limits for the State Mine Inspector while ensuring that the office remains accountable to the voters.
