With the help of the Community Environmental Legal Defense Fund (CELDF), a nonprofit public interest law firm, Mora County citizens presented a Bill of Rights to the Mora County Commission, who passed the first county-wide community rights ordinance in the US this April.
About
Community Rights Lane County educates citizens about our rights to local community governance. We believe decisions affecting communities must be made by community residents – the people affected by these decisions and laws. We believe corporate structures should not have privileges that elevate corporate interests above community rights.
