Public Hearings for Fall Ballot Councilwoman Marcia Johnson has this article on the Cherry Creek News website about public hearings dealing with the fall election. She writes, "The Denver City Council will hold courtesy public hearings to allow citizens an opportunity to comment on the proposed changes to the City Charter as well as the proposed TABOR 2005 Ballot Question. The City Charter proposed changes include replacing the Election Commission with an elected City Clerk and Recorder, and a separate measure to streamline, and update and create flexibility in the Charter section on City Council powers and procedures. The Alcohol-Marijuana Equalization Initiative is brought to City Council through a citizen petition process and can be enacted by the City Council or referred to the November ballot." Coyote Gulch applauds The Cherry Creek News for giving her a forum. Councilwoman, you can guest blog at Coyote Gulch anytime. Category: Denver November 2005 Election 9:11:37 PM    comment []
