AB 1077 Passed in the Assembly
Conway AB 1077 from CA Assembly GOP on Vimeo.
On Thursday, June 2, 2011, after the third assembly reading, California Assembly Bill 1077 passed in the assembly 47 – 25 votes. During an hour long debate Assembly Minority Leader, former Tulare County Board of Supervisors member, Connie Conway spoke out again the bill stating that it would set a dangerous precedence that takes away local land use authority.
The bill would prohibit development within 2 ½ miles of Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park in a manner that would be incompatible with the historical cultural, or recreational significance of the park. The bill would also require a feasibility study be preformed to consider the state park for designation as a National Historic Landmark.
The bill was also read for the first time in the Senate on Thursday, June 2, 2011.
Please let the Committee on Appropriations know that you support Colonel Allensworth State Historic Park and AB 1077 by sending your letters of support to:
Honorable Wilmer Amina Carter
Assemblymember, 62nd, District
California State Assembly
State Capitol, Room 2136
