CCR1973102RESOLUTION 11102-73
EXPRESSING OPPOSITION TO ASSEMBLY BILL #882
a WHEREAS, there is presently before the State Legislature Assembly
Bill 11882 which proposes to create a land resource council and
a land appeals and review board, and
WHEREAS, the proposed Bill 8882, although recognizing the need
to protect health, safety, general welfare and quality of the
public by adequately planning for and guiding the land use and
development within the State, fails to acknowledge the rights
of local communities to determine proper land use through their
own legislative processes, and
WHEREAS, many of the provisions of Bill 11882 are laudable and
the Common Council of the City of Muskego acknowledges the premise
that there is a need of coordination of planning when involving
multiple communities, however, feeling that this can be best
done on a cooperative basis with the State acting in an advisory
capacity , and
WHEREAS, the Common Council of the City of Muskego wishes to urge
the Committee on Environmental Quality to review the bill and
revise it in such a way as to provide for a land resource council
as an advisory agent to local communities,
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Common Council of the City
of Muskego, recognizing some of the merits encompassed in Assembly
Bill W882, does hereby urge the Committee on Environmental Quality
to consider amending the bill in such a manner as to provide that
the land resource council would not be granted rule-making authority
but would be considered advisory only to local governments.
DATED THIS 10th DAY OF July , 1973.
