HB 269

 LC1810

Ron Marshall (R) HD 87

Require elected official approval of sanitation related local health board rules

Comments

  1. Sent Feb. 9:

    Representatives Thane and Whitman,

    Missoula County opposes HB 269: Require elected official approval of sanitation related local health board rules, up for hearing this afternoon, in the House Local Government Committee.

    HB 269 introduces inefficient and confusing processes for adopting wastewater regulations at the local level. These changes may result in differing regulations in and outside of city limits, making the regulations more difficult to understand and cumbersome to implement. Local governing bodies already have oversight of the local board of health, appointing the board’s members or sitting on the board themselves.

    This bill is unnecessary and will not result in improved public health in our communities.

    Please oppose HB 269.

    Missoula County supports SB 269, up for second reading today on the Senate floor.

    This bill would provide homeowners in Manufactured Home Communities (MHCs) first rights of refusal to make an offer to buy the MHC if the property owner plans to sell. The MHC owner must give notice to all homeowners, and to the Montana Board of Housing, that they are planning to sell the MHC, giving homeowners 90 days to make an offer. The homeowners may assign their opportunity to purchase right to a local or state government, tribal government, housing authority or nonprofit. Preserving MHCs helps address affordable housing needs and minimizes displacement due to redevelopment forces in Montana. In addition, by having the opportunity to purchase and create a resident-owned community, MHC residents, specifically low- and moderate-income working families, seniors and people with disabilities, can maintain equity they have built, control lot rents and address infrastructure and maintenance needs.

    Please support SB 269.
