County Leaders Call for 50 Citizens to Attend Land Use Intro
Franklin County is asked to send 50 citizens to witness the introduction of repeal efforts for the state land use planning law. Ada County legislators Dan Emery and Ralph Gines coordinate with Ken Porter for a January 12 session expected to draw up to 1,000 attendees. A Burley Cassia County group plans 500 plus, while Cassia recently hired an engineer to draft a 209 page law costing 64 000 dollars. The act requires a written permit for improvements over around 25 dollars, sparking claims it erodes citizens rights and shifts planning to local governments unless counties adopt their own by 1977 or face a state default.
