In spite of nearly constant rain, 1500 <br />signatures were obtained In only two weeks. <br />We submit these to you tonight knowing that this time the voice of <br />the people cannot be Ignored. After the necessary procedures are <br />completed, we expect the Council to adopt this ordinance as presente. <br />Once adopted, 1t cannot be amended or repealed except by a vote of <br />the people, as stated in the Municipal Code. <br />Signed <br />I /s/ Robert W.
