2300 signatures were collected on a petition calling for approval of sports stadiums or arenas before they can be built. Petition supporters presented their petition to City Council this afternoon and submitted their documents to the City Clerk. Here is how the petition reads:
"The undersigned support and ask that the El Paso City Council pass the following ordinance: To adopt an ordinance concerning: No sports stadiums, or arenas be built without prior approval of the majority of voters to include the June 26th, 2012 Agenda item #12."
Petitioners had until Thursday to submit their petition but decided to come forward to today's City Council with more than the needed 1500 signatures. The 2300 signatures will need to be certified; however, word around City Hall is that the City Attorney is not worried about the petition and will say more tomorrow.
