The fight is on!

We did it, Summit County! We needed 4,554 signatures and we submitted more than 6,000. Ordinance 987 should be on November ballots, BUT Summit County Clerk Eve Furse declared our petition insufficient. She cites binding issues with 30 of our 77 packets. We maintain we followed State statute and that the signatures in the rejected packets should be validated. But Eve isn’t budging. And so we’ve retained highly qualified attorneys at Foley & Lardner to fight for every resident who singed to put Dakota Pacific’s amended Development Agreement to a referendum.

We go before Third District Court Judge Richard Mrazik before the end of August. Between now and then, there are additional briefs to file and a TON of work to do. The fight isn’t cheap, and Clerk Furse appears bound and determined to make it as expensive as possible for us every step of the way. We need your help. Please support our legal fund:

Venmo (no fees)

GoFundMe (they take a fee)
