Council Minutes of 7/17/01 ,,,,,~„ tirne. They cannot possibly go through the entire city, so it's on a complaint driven basis. Since Mr. Pangrac has addressed these particular streets, there will be someone out there immediately. He is particularly concerned with the hole in the sidewalk as the city is now on notice and can be liable since Mr. Pangrac has called it to our attention. Patricia Dies, 26893 Sweetbrier Drive, said, if citizens were so concerned about being denied non-partisan elections, they would be storming City Hall, sitting in on Council meetings and raising their voices about it. It is her observation that it is a very small group that is asking for non-partisan elections and the majority of citizens by their silence have agreed to the partisan elections. Mr. Dailey said because the majority of voters are independent, he tends to disagree with that comment. If the committee does gather the 2,000/2,500 signatures, that is a pretty big statement on behalf of any committee. If they can get that done, it is definitely worth looking into.
