Capitol Report - Growth Management and Climate Change
February 09, 2009

This Capitol Report provides an update on how the climate change legislation (HB 697) approved last year is impacting growth management in the state.  Last August, we issued a Capitol Report that summarized the new legislation and requirements for local comprehensive plans.  For a summary of the new legislation, visit our website at www.carltonfields.com under “Publications.” To view the Capitol Report on Growth Management and Climate Change, please click on the PDF icon above.
