Please do not accept this ordinance. This petition represents the views of activists and not our community as a whole. Let the 60 days lapse and put this to the citizens. You will hear from the silent majority and see that this ordinance is a bad idea and bad for our community. Passing of this ordinance will lead to increased drugs within our community and drug-use by youth and the most vulnerable among our community.
