By the rights granted in our State Constitution and by the power of the People of the State of Wisconsin, we the undersigned acknowledge by resolution:

WHEREAS, We The People, as citizens of these United States and residents of Wisconsin acknowledge our Constitution as the Supreme Law of this great state, and

WHEREAS, we the tax paying public, recognize Article I, Section 14 of the Wisconsin Constitution which states: “All lands within the state are declared to be allodial, and feudal tenures are prohibited,” and

WHEREAS, the Joint Finance Committee voted 10-6 to repeal the legislation contained in Section 66.1001,Wisconsin Statutes, commonly referred to as Smart Growth and
