[Durham INC] If you thought the BOCC were sleaze-balls, check this out

It would be interesting to find out when this bill was proposed and how
that coincides with the meeting for the 751 Assemblage after the protest
petition was filed.

To spell out more clearly what this means:
1) The legislature is expected to go home in 2-3 weeks, so if this
passes, it will apply to the 751 assemblage.
2) This is why they needed a postponement until July

I was looking at something else and found this special provision on
Durham protest petitions that the legislature is considering:
 
http://www.ncga.state.nc.us/Sessions/2009/Bills/House/PDF/H2033v1.pdf
 
considered "members of the board" for calculation of the requisite
supermajority.
10 To qualify as a protest under this section, the petition must be
signed by the owners
11 of either (i) twenty percent (20%) or more of the area included in
the proposed change or (ii)
12 five percent (5%) of a 100-foot-wide buffer extending along the
entire boundary of each
13 discrete or separate area proposed to be rezoned. A street
right-of-way shall not be considered
14 in computing the 100-foot buffer area as long as that street
right-of-way is 100 feet wide or
15 less. When less than an entire parcel of land is subject to the
proposed zoning map amendment,
16 the 100-foot buffer shall be measured from the property line of that
parcel. In the absence of
17 evidence to the contrary, the county may rely on the county tax
listing to determine the
18 "owners" of potentially qualifying areas.
19 The foregoing provisions concerning
 
it is obviously something the county commissioners has asked for since
all the reps are sponsoring it.  This would make it ALMOST IMPOSSIBLE to
get a protest petition in the county.  I'm not sure how to stop it, but
it must be stopped.
 
Thanks, pat
