- Abstract
- The following article examines the public outcry surrounding one town’s attempt to establish an extra-territorial jurisdiction (ETJ). Most towns easily establish ETJs with little or no resistance. In contrast, when the predominantly minority Town of Green Level attempted to use this common planning tool, it faced inordinately strong and negative public resistance. The author addresses each of the arguments made by members of the public against Green Level’s proposed ETJ, and finds that each argument is unfounded. In the end, she finds, the only difference between the Town of Green Level and its neighbors, who were allowed to extend ETJs, is that of racial composition.
