Floor Remarks
Senate Bill 2774, S.D. 2, H.D. 1, C.D. 1
May 2, 2006
I rise in support.
The purpose of this measure is to assist families who may lose their homes due to the closure of plantations such as Del Monte Fresh Produce by making plantation community subdivisions a permitted use in the state agricultural land use district.
This measure will help many workers adjust from the loss of their livelihood on plantations that closed production.
Thank you.
