Section I
1. Civil Planning
The member governments, sovereign and civil and their entities, agree to work
together whenever possible to organize the civil environment and cooperate on necessary
planing, so as to order and arrange things in a more efficient, comfortable and meaningful
way.
Each of the civil authorities have their own plans, so, the different civil authorities
should occasionally meet to reconcile their plans in ways that are necessary and more
efficient to each of them in accomplishing their goals.
2. Large-Scale Joint Civil Planning
A civil authority that is planning a large scale development, such as; an entire
city, an industrial complex or planning to leave an area mostly rural, should consult with
the other civil authorities who own land in that area so as to determine the practicality
of either, following through with the venture, buying up land from the other owners,
selling land to others or cooperating with them on a mutually agreeable development plan.
3. City Planning
(A) Member governments and civil authorities can work together through urban
planning contractual agreements, whereby, the civil authorities of an area meet to
negotiate and plan the development of an urban area in a way that allows the different
authorities to reconcile their conflicting interests so as to develop a city plan. There
are two main ways they can go about this:
(aa) By forming a joint urban civil authority to buy up land in an undeveloped area and
plan and build a city from scratch.
(bb) Working within an already existing urban area, they can take the basic design of the
city and buy up property within and around that, so as to develop the kind of
characteristics they want. They may also get property owners to volunteer or pay them to
sign an agreement to either, maintain their property a certain way or make changes to it
that fit into the plan.
4. Joint Zoning Contracts
(A) Treaty members may form zoning contracts, and authorities to oversee them, by
getting property owners to volunteer or pay them to sign an agreement to either, maintain
their property a certain way or make changes to it that fit into the plan. This can be
done mainly in three ways;
(aa) By property owners in an area deciding they want to maintain or create a certain
character to their area. The property owners may form a neighborhood zoning authority and
write a contract that describes the character of the area they want to protect or create.
They can then go around the neighborhood and explain why they want the area to be a
certain character and ask the other owners in the area to sign the contract, either
volunteering or by being paid to sign it, and by doing so agreeing to maintain their
property as it is or to change it to fit the character of the contract. The zoning
authority may be set up in any way the signatories choose, as long as they don't use
coercion or force to get compliance. They may agree that zoning changes can only be made
by the unanimous consent of all of the signatories or they may agree that zoning changes
may be made by a 2/3 or simply majority vote of all signatories or any other way they
choose.
(bb) Another way to form a zoning authority is when it is set up by an outside person or
entity who forms the authority and writes the contract, then brings it around to the
property owners of an area and tries to get them to agree to sign it. The outsider would
most likely be prepared to pay the property owners to sign it.
(cc) The other way is, for a developer or zoning authority to buy up the land ahead of
time and then resell the land under a zoning contract that the developer has written,
which is to be overseen by an authority formed by the developer. Of course, in this case
the developer makes all the discussions that the owners accept by buying the land with the
contract.
(B) Zoning authorities are responsible for administering and managing the codes and
ensuring compliance.
(aa) When property owners form contractual zoning codes they can be assured that the
character of their area will be maintained, it is not subject to political vagaries,
bribes or special interests.
The members of the zoning authority may establish within the contracts ways in which the
codes may be changed to satisfy the changing needs of the people who live, do business or
enjoy the recreation within their zoned area. (bb) As these zoned areas belong exclusively
to the property owners of the area who have given their permission to administer terms
jointly through their contracts, no person or entity outside of this area may have any
claim on the area or its codes and the members within the zoning authority may not make
any claims or attempt to annex or impose their codes on any other property owners. (cc)
Members of different zoning authorities who live under different codes may sign additional
contracts to establish common codes on top of those that already exist to smooth out any
differences between the codes so as to extend the character of their area, if their prior
contracts so allow.
(dd) Property owners have a built in
incentive to sign zoning contracts because having the assurance of the area being
maintained a certain way, yet the owners are still able to change the zoning, this should
increase the property values.
5. Building Codes
(A) Building codes are voluntarily agreements entered into between property
owners. They may be established by mutual contract between the persons involved through
either; private agreements, community associations, civil government laws, codes set by
insurance companies that have contractual agreements with other insurance companies to
establish uniform industry codes or codes between governments may be established by treaty
or if none of these agreements exist then codes may be established through common law
litigation suits which arise from the implied civil contract under which people live.
(B) No building codes may be internally imposed upon any private property owner without
that property owner's prior consent either to agree to the code or by joining into some
association, policy or government.
(C) Inspections are also voluntarily agreed upon as a condition of the voluntarily
accepted codes that come from any of the various associations. No one may force private
property owners to inspect one's property or to allow someone else to inspect that
property except in the case of criminal negligence or behavior that results in intentional
or reckless endangerment or pollution of neighboring properties.
(D) As with crimes, the suspect may not be punished without having
been proved guilty through due process of law. Property private property owners may not be
forced to have their property inspected nor may they be forced to submit to inspection
without a reasonable cause to suspect that their property is a threat to others or be
forced to upgrade their property to meet any codes without it first being proved that the
property owner was negligent or irresponsible and that conduct resulted in conditions that
directly threatened the neighbor's property. If a neighbor suspects that another's
property is a threat then the neighbor must have reasonable cause to get a warrant or
through other means require inspection and then the property owner may only be required to
meet building codes to correct a condition that threatens the neighbors. To force a
private property owner into inspections or meeting codes without first proving that there
was a reasonable cause for inspection or a violation of contractual agreements or criminal
negligence or intentional pollution or reckless endangerment is unconstitutional and to
force property owners to construct their buildings to meet imposed codes is involuntary
servitude.
For an inspector to force one's way onto private property without a warrant, which
requires evidence, is a violation of this treaty and is unconstitutional.
(E) Building codes are not to be imposed by the government robbing people of their right
to private property, building codes are common law practices established by experience
using the common law standards of safety in preventing direct threats to the neighbors. A
person who believes that a neighboring building poses a direct threat to one's own
wellbeing or property should file a motion to have the neighbors property inspected.
(F) Writ to require inspection
If a neighbor believes that a nearby building is poorly constructed and for that
reason poses a direct threat to oneself, family or one's property then that person should
first ask the property owner to allow an inspection of the building, if the property owner
refuses and if the neighbor has reason to believe that the building poses a threat then
the neighbor may follow several courses of action depending on contractual agreements or
governmental membership treaties.
(aa) Firstly; if the property owners in the dispute have signed a contractual agreement
that allows for inspections, if there is reason to believe there is a danger, then the
property owner in question must allow the inspection. This agreement can be formed either
by mutual community negotiations or more commonly every property owner who has insurance
may have entered into a contractual agreement with all other ensured property owners to
either requires prior inspection of all property or at least allow inspections if the
neighbors have reason to call for one.
(bb) Secondly; all persons who are civilzens of the same civil government may pass a law
that either requires prior inspections or allows for them with reasonable cause.
(cc) Thirdly; civilzens of different governments may through treaties, agree to either
require or allow for inspections with reasonable cause.
(dd) Fourthly; if the property owners in question belong to different governments or one
is an independent sovereign then one of two courses of action may be pursued.
[aaa] If the presumed danger is not direct or imminent, then the neighbor may file a law
suit against the property owner on the grounds that the owner's property poses a threat to
the claimant's life or property. A law suit can only be filed against a person who belongs
to a government that has signed a treaty agreement with the government of the claimant,
even if their two respective governments have not signed treaties on building codes, in
this way the two civilzens may establish building codes through common law court cases by
litigation.
[bbb] Or; if the property owner is an alien or an independent self governing sovereign and
the neighbor believes that the other person's property poses a direct and imminent threat
to oneself, family or property, then the neighbor may file a complaint with one's police
department showing enough evidence that establishes a reasonable cause for a warrant that
will require an inspection on the grounds of self defense on the part of the neighbor. If
the independent sovereign property owner refuses to accept the warrant and allow an
inspection, then the Securitariot may take defensive measures to isolate, blockade and cut
off supplies to the independent property owner, particularly cutting off electricity or
other supplies that would allow the property owner to continue posing a threat to the
neighbors.
(G) There is only three justifiable reasons to require inspections or to establish codes,
they are;
(aa) Structural integrity - In the case of a building being poorly constructed
which poses a direct and imminent threat to the neighbors because, shoddy construction
makes the structure weak and causes a condition in which there is imminent danger of the
structure partially or completely collapsing in a way that will result in part of the
structure falling onto the property of the neighbors or onto the sidewalk, street or other
public property. Obviously, in this case it applies only to either, buildings which are
adjoining each other or are very close together such as townhouses or it applies to very
tall buildings over two stories in which a collapse of the building would result in it
falling onto other property. Structural building codes can't be imposed on any property in
which a collapse of the building would not in any way threaten to fall onto other
property. This does not allow for imposition of codes on private homes built on half acre
lots in which the house, which is no more than two stories, would not fall onto another
property, or even if it's more then two stories, if it can be shown that it's collapse
would not lead to it falling onto another's property.
(bb) Fire - a building that is not electrically wired properly or has structural
problems that may lead to a partial or complete collapse that may result in fire.
Fire codes cannot be imposed to protect people who live on or visit private property since
it is their choice to do so. Fire codes are only to protect the neighbor's property.
To establish fire codes it must be shown that the property in question poses a direct an
imminent threat of fire that endangers the neighbors. This may either be because of shoddy
wiring or construction or because of activities that use fire, fuels or chemicals that
poses a threat. The plaintiff must show that the threat of fire is such that if because of
any of the reasons given above, a fire started on the property in question it would
immediately spread to neighboring properties without anyone having the ability to assure
that the fire can be put out before reaching the neighboring properties. A fire would
spread immediately from a townhouse which is adjoining other houses and there is little
chance of preventing its spread. However, in a home located in the middle of a one acre
lot such a fire in the house would not likely threaten the neighbors and even if the house
caught on fire it and no one attempted to extinguish it, the house would most likely burn
entirely to the ground with the flames eventually dying out without ever threatening
anyone else's property, obviously in this case there is no justification for requiring
building codes on such property. If the building in question is large enough or the
surrounding property is small enough that there is some question that a fire would pose an
imminent threat to the neighbors, then this case may either be settled through contractual
negotiations by a community organizations, the property owner's insurance companies, the
civilzen's government or treaty organizations or if all else fails then the issue may be
settled by litigation with the building codes established by common law.
(cc) Spread of disease - health codes may be established to prevent the spread of
disease and inspections may be required to ensure compliance if the threat is such that
the property is believed, with reasonable cause, to either be a carrier or breeder of a
disease that is contagious and if spread would be considered dangerous so as to threaten
people's lives or may lead to chronic or debilitating conditions. Inspections and codes
may be establish to clean up a property that is shown to be a breeding ground for diseases
especially those carried by vermin.
These codes must be established through common law and be reasonable.
(H) (aa) Pollution - inspections may be required and codes established to prevent
the spread of pollution to neighboring properties. If the a neighbor believes that a
nearby property owner is responsible for spreading pollution onto one's property then the
neighbor may use the same courses of action described in 5(D) & (F).
(bb) The standard for the justification for an inspection or the application of codes is
that the pollution is proved to be contaminating the neighboring property. Private
property owners have a right to live in pollution themselves, including living in a
garbage dump and have the right to dispose of their own garbage and sewage in their own
way. They are completely responsible for this themselves and they are held accountable if
they failed to take responsibility. If a property owner allows one's sewage to seep onto
other people's property then the neighbors may take action as described in 5(F) to stop it.
If a property owner allows garbage to pile up to the point where it becomes a breeding
ground for disease then the neighbors may take similar action, however if the property
owner has clean garbage or just a junky looking yard then it's none of neighbor's
business, if people want to live in a junky environment its their right to do so and if
the neighbors don't like it then they should either put up a fence or not look at it.
(cc) noise - noise pollution's should be handled in basically the same manner as
other forms of pollution. Except that for noise to be considered pollution it must be
established in a court of law that the noise in excessive, continuous and/or unnecessary
according to the common law interpretations of the community in question.
(I) When a person files a law suit or a complaint with the police department to get a
warrant to require an inspection the police department will bare the initial cost of the
inspection, if it is proved that the inspection was justified and the property is not up
to established codes so that it poses a direct threat to neighboring properties, then the
property owner who has violated the codes will have to pay for the cost of the inspection.
However, if a person requires another property owner to have an inspection and the
complainant was wrong because the inspection showed that there was no justification for it
and the property was up to codes, then the complainant must bear the full cost of the
inspection, if the complainant goes to a regulatory authority or an insurance company who
then conducts the inspection then the cost will be paid for by the authority or insurance
company if they believe there is reasonable cause and get a warrant.
(J) Any property owner who is negligent or irresponsible and particularly anyone who
violates contractually agreed upon building codes that results in a disaster that causes
damage to other people's property or that injures persons outside of the originating
property will be open to criminal prosecution and/or a law suit and will be held fully
responsible for restitution.
(K) (aa) People who live in adjoining townhouses or other attached structures have to set
their own building codes either through contract or litigation.
(bb) If the neighbors choose to raise the building codes in the same building or adjoining
buildings,
then they may have to make changes in their property to meet the higher standards and this
will cost them money.
(L) For people who live within the same building, apartment or condominium the owner will set the building codes.
(M) (aa) In order to be secure people have to have control over their lives and
property and people have control over public or common property through mutual contracts
and settle their disputes in litigation court, it's the duty of the Securitariot to
protect people's security, meaning their control over their own lives and property.
(bb) Because of the Securitariot guarantees to protect the safety of neighboring
properties that have security and disaster insurance and to replace any damage to those
properties as a result of the inability of the emergency service corps to prevent
destruction, there is absolutely no excuse for the internal imposition of any building
codes. Meaning that no one can impose codes that tell someone how to construct their own
building, the codes as with all regulations are applied externally, they say that you may
construct your building and organize your property in any fashion you want to as long as
you don't directly threaten other people's property; and the regulation applies only at
the property boundaries.
(cc) [aaa] When building codes are set by law they are not to dictate the type of
construction or the materials, they are codes that state in a negative way, that certain
construction or materials that are in place must be changed or removed so as to no longer
pose a threat to the neighbors or that certain practices that endanger public safety must
be stopped or altered.
[bbb] To set codes that require a certain type of construction or the use of certain types
of materials it will have to be established through private contracts, community
associations or through insurance companies and the building industry.
[ccc] Whether or not certain building practices or materials are up to codes will be made
by the property owner with consideration for the standards and codes set by their
insurance company in partnership with the manufacturers and with consideration to the
neighbors who may require inspection if the house is close enough to pose a threat.
(dd) It is left up to the private property owner to be primarily responsible for one's
property and to have it inspected oneself while it is being constructed so as to save the
owner problems in the future, the owner's as well as the neighbor's insurance companies
may have oversight monitoring of the private inspection and the construction process.
There is no greater deterrent to prevent faulty construction or fire hazards than the fact
that not constructing a house properly causes it to become dangerous and threaten
the lives of the people who live in it, failing to take responsibility may result in their
deaths, no one else can impose any greater deterrent against irresponsible construction
than this. Who do you think cares more about preventing fire hazards or structures
collapsing, the people who would burn to death in it or some of the neighbors many meters
away who realistically would not be threatened by it?
(N) The standard to be used that would preclude compliance with codes is that the
house would burn to the ground by itself or that there is a fire prevention procedure in
place to protect neighboring properties and not pose a realistic threat to the neighbors
or if it collapsed it would not fall on another's property.
(O) Insurance policies are established only along with the freedom that allows people
to control their own property and insurance companies to set safety standards with the
policy and to set standards and codes with other companies throughout the industry. As
with other things this is the best and only way that people can have the right to control
one's own property and still have safety measures in place that comes with guarantees by
the authorities to prevent permanent loss of property.
The value of private regulations such as electrical underwriters laboratory, engineers and
contractors standards and other private industry standards set over products, materials,
construction and services in which they know much more than do any government bureaucrat
is that they provide choices for the consumers and better information and because they are
more directly involved their regulation it is more controlled and strict and is better
inspected and it keeps up the standards of those who actually work to create and to build
and provide the services.
The government's only role is to make sure that whatever standards or codes they choose to
set are honest and that they live up to their word, there can be no imposing of internal
standards on others.
(P) Building and fire codes are two different things, a fire code is only to prevent fire
and cannot be used to establish building codes. If a building is shown to be a fire hazard
because of it being poorly constructed, the owner of the building may choose to turn off
the electricity, not use fireplaces or remove any potential fire hazard rather than alter
the building, it is the owner's right to do so.
(Q) Building codes or standards are established on tall
buildings or townhouses or other adjoining buildings to protect against the building
collapsing and falling on other's property and are often required for obtaining property
insurance or liability insurance policies.
6. Industrial Planning
Civil authorities may plan the construction and operations of industries that
complement each other and provide more efficient access to the trade of resources and to
transportation.
7. Rural Planning
Civil authorities may plan or maintain, through zoning contracts, the rural
character of the land. Protecting farming communities or other natural industries that
work close to the land and that complements and serves the rural lifestyle.
8. Public Utilities
Utilities are owned and operated by either private or civil authorities, however,
it may be in the interest of different civil authorities to work together to plan and
coordinate the operations of utilities, such as; water supply and waste disposal so as to
agree to use the same water pipes and sewage pipes. They may also agree to share the same
water supply and to have a common garbage disposal site. They may negotiate the terms and
payment for joint use.
9. Energy
Energy is supplied by private and civil entities, however, the civil authorities
may want to agree to allow the use of the same electrical lines, power stations and
transformers, though, those things may be owned and operated by different entities, it's
in their mutual benefit to allow each other to transmit their energy through them.
10. Communications
(A) Communication services and technology is owner and operated by private
and civil entities, however, the civil authorities who are signatories to this treaty
agree to sell bandwidth on the open market and they may want to agree to allow the use of
the same communications lines, though, the lines may be owned and operated by different
entities, it's in their mutual benefit to allow each other to freely transmit their
communications through them.
(B) Internet
(aa) No one owns the Internet and no one has the right to impose regulation or censorship
on something that is merely a medium for communication. The content of the data and the
ideas that are expressed in it are strictly the business of those who are communicating
and no outside authority has the right to invade or interfere with it.
(bb) To protect the freedom and functionally of the Internet it is necessary for
governments to protect privacy in the storage of data and the sending of data through
encryption and to protect people's electronic property, their data records, their software
and hardware. Persons and entities must be protected from hackers, electronic vandals or
thieves. To accomplish these goals people should concentrate on protecting privacy from
any intrusion, particularly government intrusion because this is the greatest threat to
privacy and freedom of communications, the cyberpolice should also protect people from
hackers or thieves that would break into people's computers to steal money or valuable
data or those who would counterfeit or steal electronic currency. They should also protect
people from online harassment and threats.
And protect children from exposure or exploitation to pornography, violence or other
things that are harmful to children. In accomplishing this it is important not to sensor
or restrict communications for adults but to concentrate only on tracking down those
individuals who have committed crimes and punishing them without punishing innocent
people.
The police must also track suspects who commit physical crimes and use electronic
communications to conspire, organize or carry out their crimes, and the police must
accomplish this duty with lawful warrants allowing for monitoring or eavesdropping only on
those suspects while screening out innocent communicators.
(cc) But most importantly, it is the duty of the police to protect people's privacy and
the integrity of individual rights by preventing anyone, particularly government, from
forcing people to hand over keys to their encryption, when people are forced to give
access to their most private conversations to others it puts them in a subjugated
position. No security promised by the surrender of one's right to secure communications
can compensate for the loss of those secure communications because what is gained is a
false security, real security comes from being able to control yourself and your property
and to be able to defend it from those who would take it from you. Since it is the duty of
the police to help people to defend themselves, the police must first protect privacy and
secure communications and then if there is evidence of a crime that has been committed
then the police must track the suspect and get a warrant that allows them to use whatever
technology is at their disposal to eavesdrop only on the suspect or suspected accomplices
without robbing innocent people of their right to private and secure communications.
(dd) All decisions about the standards used through the Internet such as languages,
protocols or software must be made by private organizations and the free market.
The online communities are voluntary associations in which people choose to freely
participate and as such their organization and government must by definition free
government that is entered into voluntarily and coordinated with other freely chosen
governments over the various cyber-communities. These cyber-community governments have
their own rules of procedure and substantive content, other people must respect the
decisions of these communities to control their own content as long as they don't try to
impose their standards on others or interfere with others right to control their content
or cyber-organizations. Any differences in the way in which people choose to govern their
cyber-communities will have to be negotiated through voluntarily accepted ways that result
in mutually agreeable conclusions. Like the free market, the Internet will be governed by
contractual arrangements that are consensual. The only role for the official government is
to protect people's right to this freedom to organize and associate and to enforce
consensual contracts.
(ee) Like the telephone the Internet is essentially a private communications medium and as
such people are at its most basic level free to say, express or create anything they want
to because by its nature the communications are not directly imposed on anyone. Threats or
harassing phone calls are criminal or a litigation case because of its unsolicited
imposition so is such harassment through the computer.
But this is at its most basic level, at a higher level there is some organization and an
implied invitation to the public to join into the communications to the extent that there
is some public nature to the medium. As all public spaces have to be organized from
private property through consensual agreements entered into voluntarily and held together
by contracts so too does the various cyber- communities have to be organized. They are
public and are defined as such according to the different definitions and standards of the
people who organize them. Each is just as legitimate as the other as long as it is freely
created. Any inter-public or joint-public communities have to be created in the same way;
formed by consensual contracts.
If you view material you are choosing to enter someone's private domain, if it's on a
private server then its private, when someone chooses to enter it they are viewing private
information or engaging in private communication.
If the data is held on a public server then its public according to the definition,
standards and laws of the governing authority overseeing that particular public space.
(ff) Any disputes or differences in standards, procedure or substantive content, obscenity
or other questionable content will have to be settled through negotiations between the
different governing organizations of the various public spaces.
(C) Intellectual Property
People have a right to communicate by expressing ideas and opinions
including those of other people, namely; patents, trademarks and copyrights through the
Internet just as they do in private conversation, letters or over the telephone.
The exclusive entitlements to intellectual property is granted to people or entities
within contractually organized arrangements. Protection of intellectual property is a
contract itself with other people who are joining into contractually organized public
spaces and the implied contract of the public marketplace. At the level where the Internet
is a private communications medium this contract for exclusivity of intellectual property
does not apply. When people inter into the implied contract of joining into the public
communications media which may include web sites or the use of public servers which have
signed on, either expressly or through implication, to be a part of that officially
organized marketplace of which the owner of the server is a member, along with the owner
of the intellectual property, in this case, people who use this public server, which is a
part of the organized economy of the owner to the intellectual property, can not steal or
exploit that intellectual property which belongs to others. However if people want to
organize their own economic marketplace or cyber-community, which is exclusive to
themselves and does not enter into the implied contract of other people who own
intellectual property in contractual agreements with separate organized economies, then
those essentially private though publicly open spaces are separate from other's
organizations and therefor as sovereign entities they are as sovereign as an individual or
the joint sovereignty of nations or governments and as such they have a right to control
what ever information they have obtained without committing a crime. If claimants to
intellectual property want to prevent people from using that information through those
exclusively organized spaces, then those people or entities will need to enter into
negotiations with those authorities who govern the organized spaces so as to come to an
agreement through contract or treaty to respect each other's claims to intellectual
property in all public spaces that are entered into by contract either explicitly or
implicitly. What each side has to gain from this is that they expand their socio-economic
public spaces in which that they may associate and do business and they gain a greater
monopoly over their intellectual property and through these agreements they greatly expand
their marketplace by forming contractual organizations with other organized economies they
make themselves available to more consumers.
11. Transportation
(A) While transportation is owned and operated privately, civil authorities may
plan transportation routes and arrange to make travel easier and more efficient by
coordinating the privately owned transportation in a way that allows all contributing
entities to provide transportation services in ways that are mutually beneficial.
(B) Airports
They can plan for the location of airports that will be open to allow any airline
that purchases terminal space and meets the regulations of the FET Section I; Chapter 13 to offer air
service. In the planing of an airport it is necessary to get the permission of surrounding
land owners to allow the loud noise and possible threat of accidents on take-offs and
landings. Paying these land owners more money than they could get from farming or most
other uses of the land, should secure their consent.
(C) Highways, Railways, Waterways
Travelways, which are owned by different private entities, may be coordinated under an
agreement that states; all travelway owners who sign this Treaty agree to make their
public travelway accessible to all travelers, without obstacles, such as; physical toll
booths, customs or guarded check points or unreasonable intrusions into the privacy of
travelers who are members of FSUTO-IGT, such as; police random checks, road blocks or
unlawful searches of vehicles or discriminatory harassment of travelers because of
personal characteristics. Non-FSUTO members may be stopped and searched and may be
required to have a license and/or visa. Tolls can be collected electronically and driving
under the influence can be prevented with an Onboard
Monitor and required by the owner of the travelway, the
owners may agree that instead of customs searches the travelers will be asked by the
onboard computer if they have anything to declare and the travelers will be told by the
computer the things that are prohibited in the jurisdiction in which they are about to
enter. Persons who have violated the law in the past may be required to pull into a
customs check point to prove themselves. Owners of travelways may require licenses and/or
registration for the drivers, and vehicles that travel into their area. The Treaty
member road owners should coordinate the licensing/registration so as to allow a traveler
to only have to get one license or registration that will cover all travelways in the
CPTreaty jurisdiction, and the computer technology should be coordinated so as to have a
single standard of operating procedure and programming that will work with all travelway
owners.
(D). Harbors
While individual docks, marinas or harbors are owner privately, member civil
authorities who own these facilities that operate as public shipping facilities, agree to
keep the passage to the facilities open for use by all other members under the same
guidelines as for travelways, except that these facilities may be allotted by either first
come, first serve or rented or purchased.
12. Joint Spaces
The joint sharing or operating of public spaces may be organized through
contracts between the Sovereign's involved. They should negotiate their own terms of use.
13. Borders
Treaty members agree that all jointly planned developments and spaces that are
made open to the public under a contract to all persons who are CPACT members, that there
will be no customs check of members, nor random stops and that the only crimes in the
spaces are violations of the rights of persons according to the law of the sovereign
government to which at least one of the person in the dispute belongs.
14. Transfer of Contract Jurisdictions
(A) Signatories to this treaty concur that the transfer of contracts shall be
handled in the manner as described in FSUTO-IGT: Sec. VI; Ch. 10.
All property and contractual proprietorship of property shall be exclusively in the hands
of individuals, and all entities; corporations, cooperatives and governments themselves
shall be organized and incorporated by individual shareholders who own stock in the
entity. This stock shall be passed on to another individual under any terms that the two
individuals agree upon.
(B) Governments
Civilzenship in all governments who are members of this treaty shall be by
individual choice and each individual shall have a share in one's government that allows
one to sell or by other means pass on that share to another individual,. In this way
civilzens of all governments may leave those governments and take their share of property
with them, this forces all governments to serve the needs of its civilzens and most
importantly it prevents the reestablishment of the state. No persons or entities may form
a government, nationality or other organization that claims permanent ownership of any
piece of physical or intellectual property, all property is to be owned by individual
persons who have sovereignty over their property and may do with it what they choose, they
may enter into any nationality or government and when they leave they may take their
property with them, unless the individual has voluntarily chosen without coercion or force
to sign a contract agreeing to keep one's property within a certain jurisdiction or
contractual obligation for the rest of one's life, and when the property owner dies the
commitment to the jurisdiction or obligation comes to an end. The only way to keep
property within a certain nationality or government jurisdiction is when an individual who
is a civilzen or national chooses to sell to another person who is a civilzen or national
or to someone who agrees to keep the property within that certain jurisdiction or under
the same obligation.
(C) Ethnological Contracts
Persons who are members of ethnic groups, tribes, nations, religious orders
or just wants to keep property with in the family for many generations to come may only
sell their property to other persons who are members of the same group or to persons who
agree to keep that property within the group. When the second person buys such property
and agrees to keep it within the group this agreement applies only to that person and can
only extend throughout that person's life, two people can't sign a contract to agree that
if the first person sells to the second person, when the second person later sells to a
third person, then the third person must keep the property within the group of the first
or second person. In FSUTO individual sovereign person's own property; artificial entities
and institutions cannot own property. If someone is allowed to put conditions onto a
contract that a piece of property must be maintained according to the contract of the
first person who owned the property through every succeeding transfer, then this gives
rights to dead people and it gives rights to property itself instead of recognizing the
right of individuals to buy and sell and maintain property according to their own choice.
The original contract was between the original owner and the buyer. When the 2nd owner
transfers the property a new contract is formed with the new buyer, and the 2nd owner is
only obligated to follow the terms of sale and the conditions under which the property is
transferred as agreed upon between the 1st and 2nd owners.
The state was created by chieftains and kings who passed on property to their
heirs with the condition that the property must be maintained according to past
traditions, governments or religious beliefs, people were bound to the land as peasants
and even the rulers were bound to the government and traditions of their ancestors, this
is a prescription for tyranny in which the institution of the state or monarchy combined
with the choices originally made by a distance ancestor are imposed on every successive
generation, where people of future generations are denied the choice of maintaining their
property that they own in the way that they choose, instead they must maintain it in the
way that their ancestors did, this is absurd and is against the basic natural laws of
individual sovereignty and the voluntarily accepted contractual agreements which govern
civilization.
(D) No
Entailments
15. Reorganization of Resources
(A) The reorganization of resources may be accomplished by entering into negotiations with
alien state governments, entities and persons for the sharing and joint use of
public resources that have been confiscated from the private sector or have been purchased
with money stolen from private persons or entities, whereby, citizens have been forced to
purchase and support property and services against their will. This "state owned
property" must be turned over to its rightful owners, the people who's money has been
used to purchase and maintain it. The property should be turned over to the persons who
were citizens or residents of the territory controlled by the state who robbed them of
their money through taxes and the property should be delivered to them in shares that are
proportional to the amount of money that each person paid in taxes throughout one's
lifetime.
This property may be reorganized in any way that the individual shareholders choose, an
individual shareholder may choose to sell one's share or to claim one's piece of the
property as private property, or the shareholders may choose to make the property that
they hold in common to be public property under any definition or jurisdiction that they
choose, of course if some shareholders object then they can take their shares or their
piece of property if the property may be divided up and put it under any contract or
jurisdiction that they choose. The shareholders remaining in the common entity may then
form a public entity to administer over the property.
(B) Some state property, particularly property pertaining to security, defense, police and
other emergency services should be organized under a jurisdiction that will put the
property under FSUTO treaties so that it may be operated as public security and emergency
services so that all FSUTO people and their governments may have the opportunity to use
these resources to protect themselves, their rights and to better uphold peace, defend
human rights and foster cooperation with all people in service to the community and
humanity.

(B) The authority of the committees is limited to upholding the agreed upon terms of the treaty members. To insure this, the committees have the authority to inspect the sites and operations named in the Treaty or agreed to in other joint contracts which are within the scope of the CPACTreaty. Treaty violations or disputes will be taken to the CPACT Hearing Board.
3. CPACT Hearing Board
(A) Joint Judgeship - 1 judge from each jurisdiction involved in the dispute will
preside over the hearing. Judges should be selected by their expertise in the category of
dispute; i.e. economics, industrial, transportation.
(B) The Board will conduct hearings to settle disputes over issues within the authority of the CPACTreaty. The hearing will be conducted in the same way as other litigation trials. The only differences are that a joint judgeship will preside over the hearing instead of a jury and there will be no damages paid. The hearing is not a liability trial, it is just to settle disputes over treaty agreements and contracts that pertain to the treaty. Both parties that enter the hearing are bound by the ruling to abide by it's decision. If a person or entity is damaged by a violation of this Treaty, then the wronged party may file a suit in the FSUTO-JGT Liability Court.
