Both the NC Senate and House adjourned this afternoon, concluding without taking action on the two bill that would affect Boone—Senator Dan Soucek’s bill to end Boone extraterritorial jurisdiction and Representative Jonathan Jordan’s bill that would kill the New River water intake.
The two bills that would ‘box in’ Boone development for the future were awaiting action in the same house committee, the Rules, Calendar, and Operations of the House committee, but Senator Soucek said on his way back from Raleigh that he will continue to work toward resolving the issues of extraterritorial jurisdiction saying Boone has abused the power over areas outside town. |
