Clark County Proposed Charter Amendment No. 14
The Clark County Charter Review Commission adopted Resolution No. 2021-12 proposing an amendment to the Clark County Home Rule Charter, reducing the number of signatures needed to submit a petition for initiative or referenda, and allowing the transfer of signatures to a miniinitiative. If approved, this amendment would require petitioners who submit a petition for a referenda or initiative the signatures of 8 percent of the number of votes cast in the last gubernatorial election. It would also allow petitioners of initiatives to transfer gathered signatures to a mini-initiative petition.
