On the surface this sounds like wishful thinking by folks who are not required to think deeply. If there are no migratory or commercial folks in this location the first thing I would ask is..... is there anything (except for proximity to the almonds in California) that would make the site desirable for a commercial beekeeping operation? There is also the consideration of the religious makeup of places like Utah which tends to be exclusionary and insular and I myself would wonder how much this type of ordinance is simply designed to exclude others and protect their own? *********************************************** The BEE-L mailing list is powered by L-Soft's renowned LISTSERV(R) list management software.
