consider: (a) The appropriateness of the statute to local governments or other entities of a

particular population classification; (b) Any changes in conditions that are applicable to the affected entities; (c) Changes in state or federal law other than the law being amended; and (d) The testimony of representatives of local governments and other persons indicating
