The League <br />also continues to insist that federal regulations take into <br />consideration geographic variables, costs and benefits of control <br />measures, and address the most serious pollution discharge problems <br />first. <br />While modification of proposed requirements for virtually all cities <br />to conduct costly permitting, mapping, testing and reporting activities <br />at innumerable outfall locations has been accomplished to limit federal <br />regulations only to locations in larger cities, it is apparent that <br />problems remain with the approach being proposed for the program. <br />FL-13 Immigration Forms for Election Judges <br />The Immigration Reform and Control Act of 1986 reyvires all persons <br />employed after November 6, 1986, to complete an Employment Eligibility <br />Verification Form (Form I-9). INS interprets the law.to include <br />election judges, even though they may have worked in previous election <br />The INS is consi.derii,g a revised ruling which would exempt election <br />judges from having to complete Form I-9. The purpose of having each <br />new employee complete a Form I-9 is to insure that no employer is <br />hiring illegal aliens. Election judges must be citizens and that <br />requirement fulfills the purpose of using Form I-9. <br />Unless the current ruling is revised; cities and other political <br />subdivisions will continue to have a time-consuming burden of <br />paperwork and record -keeping which is not necessary to comply with <br />the intent of the law. <br />FL-14. Low- and Moderate -Income Nousinq <br />Federal housing policy must include continuation and increased levels <br />of funding of affordable housing and improvement in the feasibility of <br />utilizing low income housing tax credits to encourage private investmeld <br />in such projects financed with tax-exempt bonds. <br />-76- <br />
