The new charter requires a popular referendum for such projects, but opponents may seek a petition by April 17 to trigger a vote before April 28. Also noted, Airman First Class Ralph T. Foster of Waxahachie Texas participates in Exercise Delaware in Iran with 6,800 U.S. personnel, providing maintenance support for the multinational drill.
