Commonwealth Court unanimously ruled this week House Bill 1222 dealing with exempting large farming operations from certain local regulations was properly vetoed by Gov. Rendell in the waning days of 2003. Press reports say the decision will be appealed.

The Court’s action was the result of a lawsuit brought by Senate and House Republicans who thought the Governor did not follow proper procedure in vetoing the bill.
