|
| | | Preamble. The Constitution of Maine, Article IX, Section 23 | | requires that real estate held by the State for conservation or | | recreation purposes may not be reduced or its uses substantially | | altered except on the vote of 2/3 of all members elected to each | | House. |
|
| | | Emergency preamble. Whereas, Acts and resolves of the Legislature do | | not become effective until 90 days after adjournment unless | | enacted as emergencies; and |
|
| | | Whereas, the Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife holds a | | conservation easement on a parcel of land adjacent to the | | Rangeley River in Rangeley; and |
|
| | | Whereas, the conservation easement was acquired from the | | Rangeley Lakes Heritage Trust with funds from the Land for | | Maine's Future Fund; and |
|
| | | Whereas, the Oquossoc Standard Water District desires to install | | one or more wells on the parcel of land to provide water to the | | Village of Oquossoc in the Town of Rangeley; and |
|
| | | Whereas, in the judgment of the Legislature, these facts create | | an emergency within the meaning of the Constitution of Maine and | | require the following legislation as immediately necessary for | | the preservation of the public peace, health and safety; now, | | therefore, be it |
