Charter Initiative Petition

[Darrell Flood]

The initiative is approved for signing. Darrell is currently gathering
the signatures from those that already let him know they were
interested and those that have been stopping him in the street. The
number needed is 217 verified signatures, but he is planning on
getting more for the verification process.

Please make sure you are registered to vote in Lafayette. You can
call the clerk's office at (503)434-7518 to find out.

The plan is to get all the steps approved to get it on the March, 2009
ballot. This will not be a special election – this is a regularly
scheduled election time. Once the signatures are received and
verified, our city council will have the opportunity to approve the
charter or pass it on to the voters. So, a need for the YES vote from
you in March will depend on the city council.

Darrell can come by to you or you can come by to him to sign the
initiative. He is at 287 Canyon View Drive and can be reached at
503-857-2555 or tea...@gmail.com. You can even gather a few friends
and neighbors and have a signing party.

Remember – Your City – Your Money – Your Voice

PS – Reminder about the council meeting 9/11/2008 at 6:30. There is a
public hearing regarding the land use decision.
