Coos County Charter - Diary update 5-28-2012‏

5/29/2012

To All,
Diary update  5-28-2012

5-9-2012, Wednesday, the Charter was taken to the Voter  Registration office for filing by the County Clerk.
Dede and Debbie made a duplicate copy  for their records and we asked for & received  a" conformed copy", one  certified by them to be a true copy of the document just filed. Cost:  $11.25. 
 
5-10-2012, Thursday,  Dan of The World requested,  and was given, a telephone interview regarding the Charter. It was to be in  the paper  

5-12-2012, but was not published.

5-12-2012, Saturday, a private gathering to celebrate the filing.

5-15-2012, Tuesday,  Ronnie requested the BOC  put the proposed Charter on the November ballot.  They did not  respond, however Cam Parry came out shouting about how it took all the citizens'   rights away. Dan
said he was waiting to see the BOC's action today before  the interview was printed.
 
5-16-2012, Wednesday, about 4:55PM we again called the Clerks  office and was told by Terri Turi the document had passed the  "Constitutional  Sufficiency  Test" and letters had been mailed to the  chief
petitioners .  ( It seems it is not required that the filing group,  ARRRG, be  notified in any manner.)
We were also informed the document has been forwarded ( 2  copies ) to the District Attorney's office for the ballot title, as  requested.

5-24-2012, Thursday, Dan, of The World,  telephoned  saying he had interviewed Cam Parry and the Disrict Attorney and they had grave  reservations.  He asked for my response.  I requested he put  the concerns they
had in an e-mail to me. He complied, stated he was  on deadline, and requested a quick response.  I soon telephoned him with my  reply. 
 
 
5-24-2012, Thursday afternoon,  in going to the Coos  County  website main page we happened upon the ballot title for the  document.  As it was neither dated nor signed it is not known for sure when  it was posted or by
whom. The review and challenge date written by Terri  Turi in her

5-22-2012  letter ( and ' NOTICE OF RECEIPT OF PROSPECTIVE INITIATIVE  AND BALLOT TITLE FOR
HOME RULE CHARTER' ) to the petitioners states "  6-1-2012 5:00PM".  As this is a Friday there is no way we can know if  a challenge has been made until


6-4-2012.  If a challenge is made we  will have limited time to reply to any possible challenge before a judge.  We will be contacting our attorney first thing

6-4-2012 to discover if a  challenge has been made. This also would delay and shorten our signature  gathering time.... but we will make it! 
  
5-25-2012, Friday morning, Dan left a telephone  message saying he was on deadline for Saturday but needed my reply  regarding the D.A'.s concern the Charter would devastate the county  health care system because we
were eliminatiung all grants for the  department.  I e-mailed him, quoting from chapter 21,  "....The  County shall not demand or enforce any health initiatives, measures, programs,  or regulations that violate the citizens'
personal choices regarding health care  decisions nor will the County accept any grants, gifts, endowments, or other  items of value that prescribe such demands or  enforcement."   Dan's article was not printed in the Saturday  paper. 
 
5-26-2012, Saturday,  I telephoned Dan regarding no  article in the Saturday paper.  He stated he decided to wait and put  it in the Monday paper.  I mentioned to him that when the powers that be  stated they wanted an
Administrator style government it has been immediately  reported as a great thing and then restated over several articles. He said there  was no conspiracy here.

5-28-2012, Monday. Dan's article is on The World front  page.  It is sad to me that one of our commissioners ( the only  one speaking for the BOC these days )  would choose to do character  assassination on me and
speak 180 degrees off the truth of what the English  language in the Charter says, rather than speak on the actual statements in the  Charter itself. Our job  is to provide the citizens an opportunity to read  the Charter for themselves.
