County Attorney's Report <br /> 38 John Roberts said in addition to the well-reported bills that the General Assembly (GA) <br /> 39 passed (elections and voter ID) the legislature also revisited some statutory requirements and <br /> 40 technical aspects in a technical corrections bill.

He said the Republican legislator who <br /> 43 pushed that indicated that in the upcoming long session they will put forward a bill that will <br /> 44 replace that and be better than what was being used. He said they clarified that local <br /> 45 governments cannot require new or increased stormwater controls for preexisting <br /> 46 developments, and that that has to go in stormwater ordinances, and they further restricted <br /> 47 town's ability to impose fees for the review of small cell applications. <br /> 48 Commissioner Dorosin asked if the Governor has signed the technical corrections bill <br /> 49 yet. <br />
