Citizens in Charge

Opponents of Livermore’s plan to create a special airport zoning district and eliminate the airport’s master plan will begin circulating an initiative petition soon. Max Curtis, one of the co-signers of the initiative proposal, said this week that the group has not set an exact date for circulating the initiative. He said that the group’s deadline to turn in petitions to the city is April 19. If the petitioners obtain signatures of 10 percent of registered voters, or 4600 voters, the initiative would be on the city’s next general election ballot, which will be in November 2012.
