Opinion No. (1987)

Dear Mr. Downing:

In reviewing your opinion request 135-86 pertaining to the following question:

"May a local government body such as a county commission or a city council enact an ordinance prohibiting compulsory union membership if this county or city has a charter form of government that will allow them to do so?"

We are concerned that the answer to your request would come after you are no longer a state representative. Normally we do not respond to opinion requests after an individual has left office even though that request came while you were appropriately vested as state representative.…
