MR. MELVIN: Not the way I read It.
|
|
2
|
DR. LOEVY: Are you talking about this suggested
|
|
3
|
amendment here or are you talking about the constitution
|
|
4
|
as it now stands?
|
|
5
|
DEAN FORDHAM: This.
|
|
6
|
THE CHAIRMAN: The alternate provision, Section
|
|
7
|
802.
|
|
8
|
DEAN FORDHAM: In the first paragraph it refers
|
|
9
|
to express powers. It says, Such express powers granted
|
|
10
|
to the charter counties shall not be enlarged or extended
|
|
11
|
by any charter formed under the provisions of this article,
|
|
12
|
but such powers may be extended, modified, amended, or
|
|
13
|
repealed by the State Legislature. It says, This grant
|
|
14
|
of express powers shall include (a) through (j) . The way
|
|
15
|
I read that is the Legislature could take back any of those
|
|
16
|
(a) through (j) .
|
|
17
|
MR. MELVIN: I don't think he meant that.
|
|
18
|
DR. LOEVY: That wasnt the intention when drawn.
|
|
19
|
If it was the feeling of the Conmittee that that was the
|
|
20
|
situation, I would recommend we change the language in the
|
|
21
|
first paragraph.
