[54 Pa.B. 2506]
[Saturday, May 11, 2024]Under the applicable provisions of 3 Pa.C.S. §§ 4501—4513 (relating to Agricultural Commodities Marketing Act), a review referendum was held from March 11, 2024, to April 11, 2024, to determine if the producers affected by the Pennsylvania Peach and Nectarine Research Program (Program) desired to continue the program for an additional 5 years. To pass, a majority of eligible producers voting had to vote in favor of the Program's continuation. An impartial Teller Committee (Committee) met on April 25, 2024, to count the ballots. The results were submitted by the Committee as follows: a total of 31 eligible votes were cast with 26 producers voting in favor of and 5 voting against the continuation of the Program. An additional 2 ballots were invalid because they did not meet the eligibility requirements. Votes favoring continuation of the Program by number of producers represented 84% of eligible votes and votes against continuation of the Program represented 16% of eligible votes. Because a majority of the votes were cast in favor of the Program, the Program shall continue for 5 years, effective immediately.
