Item 1

 
charter of the Portland Water District that adds the Town of
Raymond to the district and requires the town to hold a special
town meeting to participate in the election of a trustee. Because
the amendment to the charter was signed into law on May 25, 2001 on
an emergency basis as Private and Special Law 2001, chapter 25 and
the date of election of one of the district's trustees is scheduled
for June 11, 2001, the Town of Raymond can not comply with the law
without violating the time frames of the State's election laws.
This bill corrects the inconsistency by not requiring the Town of
Raymond to participate in the June 2001 trustee election.

 
The bill also clarifies that the Town of Raymond is not
required to hold a vote under the Maine Revised Statutes, Title
22, section 2653, the authorization of fluoridation, to receive
water from the Portland Water District.
