Arcata, CA Resolution Supporting the "Tobin Tax"

Type: Resolution
Status: Adopted on 10/6/99
Source File: http://www.globalexchange.org/campaigns/ftzone/tobin.html
Text:
Resolution Supporting the Tobin Tax
WHEREAS, over $1.5 trillion moves daily through currency exchange markets around the world, and over 85% of those transactions are of a speculative nature, where traders bet on whether currency values and interest rates will move up or down; and
WHEREAS, such volume and volatility disrupts the ability of nations to establish equitable and just economic policies; to intervene to protect their own currencies; and to provide support for needed social and environmental programs; and
WHEREAS, recent financial crisis and currency devaluations tend to exacerbate existing problems such as price increases, higher unemployment, plant closures, social unrest and human rights violations; and to burden indigenous, poor and middle-income populations most heavily; and
WHEREAS, excessive speculation could be curbed by a very small tax of between 0.1% and 0.25% on each cross-border currency transaction (as proposed by Nobel prize-winning economist James Tobin--"Tobin Tax"); and such a tax would reduce incentives for overnight speculation while remaining small enough to leave longer-term investments intact; and
WHEREAS, the revenues from a Tobin Tax, projected at between $150 and $300 billion a year, would provide the resources urgently needed to wipe out extreme poverty, provide basic social services and mitigate environmental destruction globally; and collection, enforcement and allocation aspects are considered to be economically feasible.
NOW, THEREFORE BE IT PROCLAIMED that the City Council of the City of Arcata urges governments around the world to immediately cooperate to establish Tobin-style taxes on foreign currency exchange market transactions, collected and distributed in a fully transparent and accountable manner, with the revenue dedicated to basic and urgent human and environmental needs and to ecologically sustainable jobs within less-developed countries.

Resolution No. 034-51
A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF ARCATA REGARDING CORPORATE PERSONHOOD
WHEREAS, the citizens of the City of Arcata hope to nurture and expand democracy in our community and our nation. Democracy means governance by the people. Only persons who are human beings should be able to participate in the democratic process; and
WHEREAS, interference in the democratic process by corporations usurps the rights of citizens to govern; and
WHEREAS, corporations are artificial entities separate and apart from human beings. Corporations are not naturally endowed with consciousness or the rights of human beings. Corporations are creations of law and are only permitted to do what is authorized under law; and
WHEREAS, corporations claim to be persons, possessing the rights of personhood, including free speech and other constitutional freedoms guaranteed by the Bill of Rights and the 14th Amendment to the Constitution of the United States; and
WHEREAS, corporations presuming such rights of personhood have influenced and interfered with democratic processes by lobbying and pressuring our legislative bodies, making campaign contributions which dominate election campaigns, and using the media to substitute corporate values for community and family values; and
WHEREAS, Supreme Court Justice Hugo Black stated in a 1938 opinion, "I do not believe the word 'person' in the 14th Amendment includes corporations"; and
WHEREAS, corporations are not mentioned in the Constitution. The people have never granted constitutional rights to corporations, nor have we decreed that corporations have authority that exceeds the authority of the people of the United States.
NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Arcata believes that no corporation should be deemed a person and therefore that no corporation should be entitled to the same rights and protections as those guaranteed only to persons under the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Arcata supports education to increase public awareness of the threats to our democracy posed by corporate personhood, and the Council encourages lively discussion to build understanding and consensus on appropriate community and municipal responses to those threats.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Arcata supports the Committee on Democracy and Corporations in hosting town meetings to draft an ordinance or ordinances addressing the legal fiction of corporate personhood and other threats corporations pose to our democracy in Arcata.
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Arcata authorizes sending copies of this resolution to our elected representatives.

Arlington, MA Requires Silver LEED Rating for All New Construction and Renovations

Type: Ordinance
Status: Adopted
Source File: (Missing)
Summary:
Allows commercial projects and private developments earning LEED silver compliance or higher to develop sites at a higher density than conventional projects. All site plan applications for commercial projects are required to include a LEED scorecard and have a LEED accredited professional on the project team regardless of whether or not the project intends to achieve LEED certification.
 
All projects must contribute to a green building fund for county wide education and outreach activities. The contribution is refunded if projects earn LEED certification (thus seemingly taxing those who do not earn LEED certification).
Arlington sponsors a voluntary green home program that encourages builders of new single family homes to incorporate energy efficient and other green building components in their projects. The county offers plan review, site signs, and publicity to program participants who achieve a given number of points as by Arlington’s Green Home Choice Program.

Ashfield, MA Solar-Aquatic® Wastewater Treatment Plant

Type: Policy
Status: Established in 1996
Source File: http://www.mwpca.org/ashfield.htm
Description:
This is the first municipal Solar-Aquatic® Wastewater Treatment Plant in the Commonwealth. The AWWTP serves the village of Ashfield in the Berkshire hills, about midway between Northampton and Greenfield on Route 116. There are currently about 165 household equivalents connected. Out design flow is 25,000 gpd, some of which is seasonal. The process is advanced tertiary treatment. Our permit levels include 30 mg/l BOD, 30 Mg/l TSS and 10 mg/l total nitrogen.
Our implementation of the Solar-Aquatic® process consists of about 10,500 square feet of greenhouse space, plus an administrative building. Municipal sewage flows in through a bar-rack and sodium bicarbonate is added to supplement the naturally low alkalinity. After an average retention time of less than a day in a preliminary conditioning tank, the flow is metered to a splitter and into six rows of solar tanks, eight tanks in each row. Each tank is about 1,000 gallons, and is constructed as a pond with transparent walls. A variety of emergent plants grow in these tanks, along with snails, fish, and numerous microorganisms. A bubbler in each tank keeps the room odor free and the animals healthy. After solar tank treatment, the flow moves to a clarifier where settleable solids are recycled or wasted. To date, we have produced about 0.25% waste sludge at 1.8% solids, which is trucked offsite for disposal.
The flow continues through a sand filter and then to a constructed wetland, or the "Marsh Greenhouse" for denitrification. The marsh is 5000 square feet of 4-1/2 feet deep crushed stone through which the water flows with a two to three day retention time. The addition of methanol encourages bacterial growth which effects denitrification to below 1 ppm. Final disinfection is by ultra-violet irradiation. The flow is measured and then goes to a leaching field through a dosing chamber.
As an extra option, we have arranged the marsh in true jungle fashion, with banana trees, flowers, a parrot flying free, numerous turtles, fountains and even a daily monsoon, complete with sound effects. It is not your average wastewater treatment plant.
