Said provisions of the proposed City Charter Amendment dealt with Term Limits and clarification of election date of November rather than the incorrect October, both of which are Constitutional and Reasonable. OCGA § 36-35-6(1) should not bar the Georgia Constitution provision of Home Rule as the proposed amendments meet the ultimate of Home Rule based upon being mandated overwhelmingly by the Citizens directly (80% majority vote) and did not alter the composition or the makeup of Mayor and Council, thus reasonable and constitutional. Further, to deny by a lack of public and open action the right of the City to correctly state the election month which is statutorily provided should be done by judicial since not approved by the Georgia Legislature. Requested by Mayor Tumlin 20170482 Draft City Council Agenda Review and approval of the May 10, 2017 DRAFT City Council Agenda.
