32. AGENDA 21 OUTLAWED IN MISSOURI

With a veto-proof majority the Missouri legislature has banned AGENDA 21, along with the many
NGO’s that provide sucker grants and implement Sustainable Development and Smart Growth.

1. As used in this section, "political subdivisions" mean all state, county, incorporated city,
unincorporated city, public local entity, public-private partnership, and any other public entity
of the state, a county, or city.
2. The state of Missouri and all political subdivisions shall not adopt or implement policy
recommendations that deliberately or inadvertently infringe or restrict private property rights
without due process, as may be required by policy recommendations originating in, or
traceable to Agenda 21, adopted by the United Nations in 1992 at its Conference on
Environment and Development or any other international law or ancillary plan of action that
contravenes the Constitution of the United States or the Missouri Constitution.
3. Since the United Nations has accredited and enlisted numerous nongovernmental and
intergovernmental organizations to assist in the implementation of its policies relative to
Agenda 21 around the world, the state of Missouri and all political subdivisions are prohibited
from entering into any agreement with, expending any sum of money for, receiving funds
from, contracting services from, or giving financial aid to those nongovernmental and
intergovernmental organizations as defined in Agenda 21.

33. AGENDA 21 DEFEATED IN CARROL COUNTY, MARYLAND

In Carroll County, Maryland in Jan 2011 “the newly elected Board of Commissioners, led by Richard
Rothschild, voted to cancel the county’s membership in the International Council for Local
Environmental Initiatives (ICLEI). At the same time the Commission also terminated the contract of
the county’s Sustainable Development director, and they sent the county planning commission back
to the drawing board for the state-mandated comprehensive development plan – with instructions to
not resubmit it until it protected private property rights and complied with the U.S, Constitution.”

“In Carroll County, Maryland, where a smart growth plan called Pathways was drafted by the County
Planning Department. The plan, if enacted, proposed a breathtaking reshuffling of land rights:
Rezoning of thousands of acres of beautiful, low-density agricultural farmland and protected
residential conservation land into office parks
Down-zoning of agricultural land to prevent future subdivision by farmers
Up-zoning of low-density residential land around small towns into higher density zoning to
permit construction of hundreds or possibly thousands of inclusive housing units, including
apartments and condominiums
Inclusive housing with placement of multi-family construction on in-fill lots within existing
residential single family communities
Endorsement of government-sponsored housing initiatives (subsidies) to ensure healthier,
balanced neighborhoods
