Did you record this? I'd like to write a letter to them tomorrow. Independence backed down so quickly I'm actually disappointed :)

Said it for at least one TV station's broadcast as a counterpoint to them reporting the Clyde VS OFCC decision.

Contrary to a popular belief when I brag about OFCC accomplishments I'm not looking for your thank you or personal recognition. I'd much prefer you send me an email telling me when you are going to get involved in doing what I've been doing since 1999. We are only as effective as we make ourselves. We need the next generation of OFCC to step to the plate.

Is that you?

I've been to every council meeting since the end of '04 and this ordinance is still on the books. What concerns me is that sometime down the road the home rule is reversed then these laws are there and could then be enforced.

If you need any assistance in removing these laws in Elyria let me know, I'd be happy to help.
I thought Elyria repealed their ordinance but left the rules and/or signs in place. Can you confirm and we'll work on it?

Thread Locked - For easier readability please create a new thread for each city that is not in compliance. Then old issues will roll off the page.
