Gov.
Mark Sanford has vetoed local legislation dealing with issues such
as election commissions and making up school day lost to bad
weather. He said the state constitution prohibits him from approving
some types of bills dealing with local issues.
But he signed some of the bills and allowed others to become law
without his approval. Here's a look at those measures.
Sanford signed:
- H-3282, which allows elections for the Laurens County District
55 school board to be held a week late.
- H-3259, which sets a referendum for a sales tax increase in
Darlington County to cover a school bond.
Sanford allowed these bills to become law without his signature:
- S-310, which raises the bond that Oconee County's school
superintendent must carry.
- S-358, which lets Clarendon School District 1's school board to
issue bonds to cover state budget cuts.
- S-395, which sets the date that school board members in York
District 1 take office.
- H-3389, which reverses the revocation of a charter for the
Columbia Jewish Community Center.
- H-3500, which allows the Holly Springs Rural Fire District in
Spartanburg to borrow more money.
- H-3652, which allows a sales tax referendum in Hampton County
for capital projects.
