City Clerk Certifies Petitions!

PUEBLO – The Pueblo City Clerk’s office completed the validation of signatures submitted by Pueblo Citizens for Open Government in their effort to return the televised public forum to Pueblo City Council meetings.

The City Clerk’s office had completed their review by noon on Friday when they contacted the group’s organizers by telephone to notify them that they had verified the necessary 1,359 valid signatures.

City Clerk Gina Dutcher has placed the item on the Pueblo City Council’s agenda for their upcoming August 25^th regular meeting. The Pueblo City Charter requires that council take action within thirty days to either pass the ordinance without alterations or refer it to city voters in the upcoming November election.
