This will cnsure that international trade with other na- tions will not suffer as wc protect the environment, he said. McMillan also succeeded in reduc- ing the negative impact of the Clean Air Bill on "clean energy” producing states like North Carolina. : In the 101st Congress he co- sponsored 10 finance and cam- paign reform bills.

The repealing of the two ordi- §& nances would mean that residents § of three mobile home parks -- West ¥ Gate, Deal Street and East Gold Street Parks --won't have to move [@ out in five years. And, they won't | have to comply with the more | stringent zoning laws which under the new ordinance applied to non- conforming mobile home parks. Wood said at last month's City | | Council meeting that certain uses of amortization for removal of bill- boards, junk cars and adult estab- | lishments had wide support of a | legislative study commission but § there was no support for amortiza- tion for removal of non-conform- ing trailer parks. Owners of West Gate and Deal Street Parks hired legal counsel to fight the city in court and the city hired legal counsel but Wood said that should the legislature pass a bill outlawing what Council want- ed to do that it would be a waste of taxpayers money to proceed with a lawsuit.
