The Honorable Richard Romero and
Members of the Senate
Executive-Legislative Building

Honorable President and Members of the Senate:
I have this day VETOED and am returning SENATE RULES
COMMITTEE SUBSTITUTE FOR SENATE BILL 855, as amended, without emergency clause,
enacted by the Forty-Fifth Legislature, First Session, 2001.
This bill exempts from voter approval a municipality’s construction and installation of a new municipal wastewater facility, and exempts such facilities from Public Regulation Commission oversight. I disfavor any change in the law that disenfranchises the voter and removes government projects from citizen accountability.
Sincerely,
Gary E. Johnson
Governor
