] The General Assembly can give additional powers
'' to new municipalities as well as to old. This means, for
I instance, they can make darned sure if a municipality is
i created by a county it will not be an odd beast, limited in
i!
i what it can do.

'' They could, for instance say, I believe,
I a new municipality, if the county creates it, has to have
; home rule. I would expect them to have the same procedures
, for both. That is not true of a civil unit. A civil
:;
; unit, as we envision it, is something totally dominated
'i
' by the county, under the county, a creature of the county
entirely. What it is is a convenient way for the
: county to provide a focal point where there is a population
i concentration, give sewer and water in that area.
Some of the less developed counties are going
to need this kind of thing. Itcould also provide a forum,
if handled properly by the county, for them to express
themselves.

I do not want to ask the Committee to rise and go through
the procedure of having a quorum call again.
