LWV Supports Proposed Changes To Lakewood Charter

To the Editor:

The League of Women Voters Cuyahoga Area, Lakewood Chapter endorses the eight changes to the Lakewood City Charter. Issues 65 through 72 on the ballot clarify language concerning the powers of city government, succession and appointments to office for vacated mayoral and council positions. The language of the endorsed changes has been simplified to allow all citizens to better understand Lakewood’s City Charter.

Full information on the eight charter amendments is available in print at the Lakewood Public Library and on the city’s web site www.onelakewood.com under the City of Lakewood blog.

Become an informed voter and be sure to vote on November 8. The League of Women Voter’s mission is to encourage all citizens to be informed voters.
