| Annotation: |
This Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) between City of Brighton and Petro Operating Company is to provide the conditions under which the operator will develop and operate future oil and gas facilities in the City, in order to foster the efficient and economic production of oil and gas resources, to protect human health, safety and welfare and to protect the environment and wildlife resources, while at the same time providing for a predictable and expeditious administrative process for obtaining City land use approvals and permits for oil and gas facilities. The further intent is to allow the operator an expedited procedure for obtaining City permits without the need for any formal hearing on such permits. |
