DESCRIPTION
This act makes several changes to the Boundary Commission Law.
The act:
1) creates a "boundary correction", which will allow adjustments of the boundaries of property under 30 acres residential or 10 acres commercial. The correction, if approved by all registered voters or property owners if there are no registered voters, and by the governing body of the municipality or the county if the boundary correction places the property in an unincorporated area. Such correction is not subject to commission review.
2) clarifies that the county or municipality can bring suit against the commission. A losing county is exempt from paying costs to the commission.
3) changes qualifications of signatories to a petition to require registration to vote.
4) expands the conflict of interest provision on commission members and employees to include contractors.
This legislation is not federally mandated, would not duplicate any other program and would not require additional capital improvements or rental space.
