GOVERNOR'S VETO

 

    Pursuant to Article V, Section 6 of the Constitution of Virginia, I veto House Bill 208, which would permit localities to integrate a "healthy communities’ strategy" into their upcoming and subsequent comprehensive plan reviews.  

    Localities have more than sufficient powers to regulate their communities through the comprehensive planning process under existing law.

    Accordingly, I veto this bill.
