Bill Caption

Relating to procedures for incorporation or establishment of another form of local government for certain areas subject to a regional participation agreement.

Fiscal Notes

No significant fiscal implication to the State is anticipated.

Bill Analysis

Under current law, certain political subdivisions are permitted to enter into regional participation agreements with municipalities. SB 1015 would put in place procedures and policies for holding an election in which residents of such a political subdivision may decide to be incorporated into the municipality or adopt a specific alternate form of local government.

Vote Recommendation Notes

SB 1015 neither uplifts nor offends our liberty principles, therefore we remain neutral.
