Water Fund Watch

On election day evening some of the Council incumbents were expressing their feelings about the overwhelming passage of the charter amendment creating a Water and Sewer Utility Fund and prohibiting the usage of its funds for any purpose other than water and sewer activities. They were discussing the possiblity of adding a sunset provision to it. Such a provision would cancel the amendment on the date specified.
/
While the intent is there, they cannot add such a provision or make any changes to the charter amendment you adopted. Only the voters at a subsequent election can modify the provision should they propose the same at a public meeting.
