Referendum on Baseball stadium
Richmond, Virginia U.S.A.) – "Today I am releasing, prior to Richmond City Council formal introduction, draft versions of the necessary Council legislation to start the process for a Richmond City-Wide Referendum to be added to the November ballot. The referendum will help Richmond City Council to determine where the residents of Richmond wish a baseball stadium to be located. This legislation will be introduced during the Richmond City Council Formal Meeting on Monday, June 24, 2013. The question on the referendum boils down to this:
Do the citizens of Richmond want baseball to remain on Boulevard?
The purpose of releasing this legislation prior to its formal introduction is to encourage public comment and dialogue.
I invite interested residents to submit their comments by email, mail, fax or telephone but I would appreciate written comments."
