Petitions Circulate
For Manager Plan
' Petitions are now being clrcu-
iated to place the county councll-
manager charter amendment
proposition before the voters in
l..May.
?' George H. Todd, chairman of
the Lane County Council Manager
i Plan Committee, Thursday an
il nounced that petition circulators
arc working for a goal of 5000
signatures before March 14.
UNDER THE Oregon initiative
;.system of law-making, that num
i ber of signatures would be ade
quate to bring about a county'
wide vote on the council-manager
plan. Proponents of the plan want
to revise the county's system of
administration, setting up a coun
cil of elected area representatives
as policy makers in place of the
county court and providing for a
county manager as the chief ad
ministrator responsible for carry
ing out the council's policies.
Thursday, Todd stated that a
number of the petitions are al
ready in the hands of volunteer
circulators, but others are avail
able for persons wishing to aid
in the initiative campaign.
The petitions may be obtained
by calling Todd at 5-6783 or by
writing to him at 229 Medical
Center Bldg., Eugene. A copy of
circulators' instructions will be
mailed out with each petition
form.
URGING that circulators speed
the return of completed petitions,
Todd explained that this would
facilitate both the work of the
council-manager committee and
courthouse officials responsible
for checking the adequacy of the
petitions and the authenticity of
voters' signatures upon them.
Until the petition phase of the
campaign is completed, he added,
the committee will not undertake
to provide speakers in any at
tempts to argue the merits of the
council-manager plan. "We want
to be sure," he said, "that the is
sue is going to the voters before
we meet the opposition m de-i
bates."
