Clerical error in city charter amendment unlikely to face courts
Legal opinion holds a clerical slip in the second charter amendment will not be seriously contested. The intention was to modify the time to file city claims, not the numbering. Officials say the error is trivial and the amendment should apply to article IV as intended, with no impact on section 29 or article VIII. Some lawyers fear arguments may arise, but authorities expect no court challenge.
