Grangers say there is no
provision for penalties should
someone opt out of the district
before the review period is up, nor
are there real incentives to get mto
a district in the first place.
“If the legislature can’t come up
with benefits, and that implies
spending some money, then how
will local townships or counties do
anything 9” Wismer asked.

Grangers say they would like a
seven-year review period to make
HB 143 uniform with Clean and
Green. They fear the measure
makes it easy to get mto a district
but difficult to get out
“We support the general concept
of HB 143 but think it could be
improved,” State Master Charles
Wismer said.
