Promoting Business-Friendly Regulations: How to Work Productively With Town Officials
The American Journal of Transportation reports, that the recent Supreme Court decision overruling Chevron casts a bright light on the role that decisions made at the nation’s capital can have on businesses large and small and predicts that going forward, the nation’s courts will have the power to interpret ambiguous laws that affect the daily operations of commercial enterprises.
“Business owners should get to know the structure of their local government and who is responsible for making what decisions,” said John P. Pelissero, director of government ethics.
“Public officials need to determine what regulations are in the long-term public interest versus what may only satisfy the business community,” said Pelissero. “When speaking up against a proposed zoning change, for example, it’s important to show how it might negatively affect the local community as well as business profits.”
