Proposed City Charter Amendment 3: Section 1-3. Home Rule Powers on the November General Election ballot is definitely the longest and probably most confusing to read, but in a nutshell it will allow to city to work at the speed of business versus the typical speed of government when it comes to getting rid of surplus property owned by the city. The proposed amendment would provide a means by which the sale of real and personal property which is not needed for any present or anticipated municipal purpose may be sold in a quicker and less expensive manner than is presently provided for in Chapter 721 of the Ohio Revised Code. Current Charter language does not clearly state that such sales may be accomplished in a means that differs from state law.
