This applies to each side of the street in both cases. These walkways have various tilts and slants and raised sections. To prevent personal injury and legal ramifications, these sidewalks must be repaired or replaced. Thank you for your attention to this matter. John Myers Malta Commissioners right to challenge charter plan Commissioners John Franck, Skip Scirocco, and Michele Madigan fought back against a surprise proposal at the last City Council meeting by the Charter Change Committee to schedule a special election. This gives the City and voters only a few months to learn about their proposal to move to a dramatically different form of government. Three City Commissioners strongly disagreed with the proposal: 1. John Franck, Accounts Commissioner, was furious that the Committee is attempting to disenfranchise citizens by holding a special election that would greatly reduce the number of voters. He completely dismissed Committee Chair Bob Turners argument insulting Saratogians that we would be unable to understand their proposal in a general election. Franck indicated that the only reason for the special election was to get the Committees proposed new government approved, which he did not believe would happen in a normal November general election since all 25 voting districts voted against changing from our government to a Strong Mayor in 2006; and 23 of the 25 voted against changing to a City Manager in 2012.
