SB 986 by Creighton: Pro-Property Rights

PRO-TAXPAYER POSITION
Support
Senate Journal Page: 1189

SB 986 seeks to amend current law to clarify that local governments may not impede upon the eviction process. Many local governments used emergency authorities to enact ordinances that distorted market processes. TFR supports the preemption of local governments over-asserting themselves in an area by which they have no jurisdiction.
