January 13 2005 Dale of AdoptIon . , RESOLUTION OPPOSING AMENDMENT TO CONDO SERVICE ACT WHEREAS, A-2121 and its companion bill, S-911, would amend the Condo Service Act to require municipalities to reimburse private communities for the costs of providing standby water to fire hydrants or provided the service within such private communities; and WHEREAS, since most private communities retain ownership of the streets in their development, it is illegal for towns to use public, taxpayers' dollars to pay for a service on a privately owned street; and WHEREAS, this bill would impose new costs on the taxpayers in the vast majority of municipalities all around the State, as it would supersede agreements entered into between those municipalities and the developers of the condominium units; and WHEREAS, this new unfounded mandate would violate Article VIII, Section II, paragraph 5 of the State Constitution, which limits the ability of the State to impose new unfounded mandates on local governments.
