"TIME HAS COME TODAY" chambers brothers

It's that time of the decade. Yes it's been ten years since the last charter review. Council is accepting names from Painesville residents who would review our charter and make recommendation on changes in Painesville policy. You could go as far as changing the form of city government from a City Manager form to a Mayor form. Some cities even elect their city managers. Maybe you think to run for council you only should have to get 25 registered voters to get on the ballot. As well as my favorite the city council and administration cannot enter a contract with a face value of over five million dollars without a vote of approval from  the general population.

Please send your names and background to clerk of council Jennifer Bell before January 22,2013. Seems like a council-president might want to load up on members of the charter review so things go smoothly? He wants the names of people before the next council meeting.
