Sec.  255.21  Local consultation on boundaries.



    Any chief executive of a general purpose government within the State 

may comment on the Governor's recommendation concerning the boundaries.

    (a) The purposes of these comments are to assure that the experience 

of local agencies is used to fullest advantage in boundary decisions, 

that incompatible institutional arrangements are not forced, and that 

significant local considerations are not overlooked.

    (b) When the objectives of the Act concerning local consultation can 

be met by an equivalent or existing process established under State 

administrative procedures acts or other State procedural guidance, the 

Governor may request that the EPA accept that process in fulfillment of 

the grant eligibility criteria under section 4007 of the Act.
