Introduced
by
To prohibit members of local planning commissions and zoning boards of appeals from voting on financial issues or contracts when they have a conflict of interest. After the bill was introduced the sponsor offered a substitute now pending in the Energy Committee (that he chairs) that would make it a four year felony for local officials to vote on a matter from which they or their family would directly benefit monetarily, such as a wind turbine tower lease agreement.
Referred to the Committee on Energy Policy
