A letter was also <br />distributed that had been received from members of the former Citizens Task Force to <br />Review Public Improvements supporting the amendment proposed by the petition. <br />Ms. Bartell explained the process used to review the petition for legal form and validity <br />and number of signatures. That process is underway and staff will report on the <br />sufficiency of the petition within the statutory time line (by August 22, 2008). Official <br />action of the council is not requested at this meeting. If the petition is found to be <br />sufficient, it would be placed on the ballot this fall with the council having the <br />responsibility of setting the ballot language. The council initiated charter amendment by <br />ordinance is still on the table. <br />The mayor noted that the council will be faced with the question of what they will send to <br />the ballot. If this petition is found sufficient, it must be forwarded but the council can <br />also decide to forward the amendment initiated by the citizens' task force. <br />It was recommended by a council member that the entire story be included in the <br />communication plan that is presented to the public. Another council member questioned <br />the viability of discussing in the communication plan an amendment that isn't on the <br />ballot (possibly the council/citizen task force ordinance). <br />The council discussed the difference between the petitioned amendment and the <br />council/citizen task force ordinance amendment. The major difference is that the citizen <br />task force/council ordinance amendment includes an allowance for the affected property <br />owners to stop a project. Under Chapter 429 (the petitioned amendment), the decision <br />basically rests with the council. <br />
