Seating Strom's Successor

This petition was published by Chapel Hill Citizens on Oct 21, 2009

We the Citizens of Chapel Hill believe that the voting public should decide who represents us on our Town Council.

However, since the unfortunate timing of Mr. Strom's resignation date has prevented us from having his seat filled in the November 3rd election, we believe that the newly elected Town Council should select the replacement Council member since they reflect the most recent values of Chapel Hill voters.

In order to accomplish this, we are hereby petitioning Mayor Foy and Council on this day of October 28, 2009, as follows:

We request that one member of the Council make a motion to table the vote until the next scheduled business meeting, and that the vote be continued as necessary until December 7th (and certainly not before), when the new Council sits for the first time. Following the motion, we request that another Council member second the motion and that the Council and Mayor vote on it.

We believe Chapel Hill voters deserve clarification from Mayor Foy and sitting Council on this matter and their assurance that the NEW Council will select Strom's replacement.
