SUMMARY STATEMENT:
On November 5, 2014 a Minimum Wage petition was submitted along with 20 signatures by Fair Wage McCall to start the process. Once the County verified the 20 signatures the petitioners
could get started with their signature collecting. The Petitioners needed 196 signatures to move the petition to the ballot; they were successful with obtaining 416 qualified signatures.
Attached is the McCall City Code for Initiatives and the current state code. According to McCall City Code 1.6.1(G) the next steps in the process for the initiative is for the council
to do one of the following:
EITHER
The city council shall have sixty (60) days (July 17, 2015) to pass an ordinance substantially as proposed by the petition. In the event the council passes such an ordinance, the initiative
petition shall be null and void.
OR
In the event the city council does not enact an ordinance which is the subject of an initiative petition, an election shall be ordered by the city clerk to be conducted citywide.
Also attached is a copy of the petioned proposed ordinance.
