made possible by the Clean
and Green resolution
adopted by Pennsylvania
voters last year is now “a
step closer to reality,” ac
cording to Rep. Kenneth
Brandt, Elizabethtown.
Brandt, who is a member
of the agriculture com
mittee, said he expects the
House to vote on the bill
within two weeks. After the
bill is placed on the calendar
Monday, the House has 11
session days to act on it.
The freshman legislator
said he has heard the Penn
sylvania Environmental
Council plans to question
part of the bill which could
result in amendments tacked
on the legislation. He is not
certain what points the
council will attack.
Final provisions of the bill
provide that a person buying
agricultural land who takes
the land out of farming
would be required to pay the
difference between its
agricultural assessment and
its market value assessment
plus the interest over the
past five years.
The other basic change in
the bill calls for unlimited
split offs. In other words, any
amount of farmland may be
taken out of agricultural use
as long as the roll back is
observed.
Brandt said he is op
timistic the bill will be
passed both by the House
and the Senate by July 1.
