Oppose Fast Track Process to Reduce Private Sector Input
 

I would like to take this opportunity to stress my personal opposition to the repeal of 12VAC 5-615 et. seq.  Rescinding these regulations would attenuate mandates legislated by the General Assembly in 1994 (32.1-163.4 A and C). 

 

Additionally, the repeal may SHIFT potential burden onto agency resources due to reducing private sector input in the onsite program.  Any actions to reduce private sector input will ultimately result in more tax dollars being spent to subsidize residential growth in the Commonwealth and attract unnecessary liability to the Agency by allowing State employees to provide proprietary services for improvements to real properties.
