The City of Naperville informs residents and interested parties that a Referendum Objection Hearing will take place at 2:30PM on Fri., Jan. 18, in Council Chambers of the Naperville Municipal Center, 400 S. Eagle St.
The hearing will be broadcast live and rebroadcast on government access TV station WCNC (Ch. 6 – WOW, Ch. 10 – Comcast, Ch. 99 – AT&T).
The hearing will deal with an objection filed on January 14, 2013, by a Naperville resident to the proposed referendum question stating, “Shall the city of Naperville elect city council at large instead of part of the councilmen at large and part of the councilmen from districts?” A petition was filed in December 2012 to place this referendum question on the April 9, 2013, election ballot.
During the objection hearing, the local electoral board consisting of Mayor A. George Pradel, Naperville City Clerk Pam LaFeber and most senior Naperville City Council member Douglas Krause will evaluate the merits of the objection. The public and media are invited and encouraged to attend.
