| | | An Act To Make Technical Changes to the Laws Establishing |
|
| | | the Lincoln and Sagadahoc Multicounty Jail Authority |
|
| | | Emergency preamble. Whereas, acts of the Legislature do not become | | effective until 90 days after adjournment unless enacted as | | emergencies; and |
|
| | | Whereas, this legislation needs to take effect before the | | expiration of the 90-day period to allow the Lincoln and | | Sagadahoc Multicounty Jail Authority to issue bonds in a timely | | fashion; 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 enacted by the People of the State of Maine as follows: |
|
| | | Sec. 1. 30-A MRSA §1851, sub-§4 is enacted to read: |
|
| | | 4.__Establishment.__The Lincoln and Sagadahoc Multicounty Jail | | Authority is established as a public body corporate and politic | | and a public instrumentality of the counties, and the exercise by | | the authority of the powers conferred by this chapter must be | | deemed and held to be the performance of essential governmental | | functions. |
