June 6 Deadline Set for Petitions to Put Amendment on Ballot
In Cleveland on May 20 the Ohio County Home Rule Amendment initiative moved toward the November ballot with June 5 set as the final filing date. Circulators pushed to gather 10 000 signatures in Cleveland and 10 000 elsewhere as part of the push to reach 195 000 total. County Home Rule Association sought the signatures but fell short last year. Sherwood Reeder of the Citizens League said the hardest part is done since the 5 percent from half the counties is achieved, with remaining needed in large centers. The amendment would grant counties power to adopt new forms of government and allow charters under alternative schemes to be set by the Legislature.
