A RESOLUTION OF THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF NORTH PALM BEACH,
FLORIDA, OPPOSING PROPOSED HB 227, THE "GOOD FAITH" BILL FOR SEWAGE
TREATMENT FACILITIES.
BE IT RESOLVED BY THE VILLAGE COUNCIL OF NORTH PALM BEACH,
FLORIDA:
Section 1. The Village Council of North Palm Beach, Florida,
after studying proposed HB 227 and receiving written communications
concerning this from Thomas F. Lewis, State Representative of District
83, wishes to advise the members of the Palm Beach County Delegation
to the 1973 Florida Legislature that it opposes the contents of HB 227,
particularly because of the imprecise definition of the words "good faith"
and the possibility that these may be defined in such a way as to permit
continued pollution of local waters by area sewer plants.
Section 2. The Village Council wishes to go on record to
the Florida Legislature as being opposed to this bill and any bills
which would lower the requirements of facilities for sanitary sewage
disposal from the present standards set forth by law.
Section 3. The Village Clerk is hereby directed to furnish
copies of this Resolution to all members of the 1973 Florida Legislature
from Palm Beach County and to the chairmen of those committees to which
HB 227 will be referred.
PASSED AND ADOPTED THIS 8 DAY OF MARCH, 1973.
