• Is a 2-stage process:  First to elect Charter Commissioners by approving Measure W.  Second, to draft a charter to be ratified by the voters in a future election. 
  • It will empower participatory democracy and will revitalize the electorate. 
  • The provisions of the charter will provide laws that are custom fitted to the unique needs of Mendocino County.  
  • A home rule charter could level the playing field against incursion of corporate rights
  • Gives more legal authority to the will of the People of Mendocino County
  • Could protect natural and financial resources from exploitation by Wall Street and transnational corporations
  • Being a sovereign county may protect us against international trade agreements
  • Could allow for public financing of county elections and Instant Runoff Voting
  • Could make fraudulent robo-signing of foreclosure documents illegal
  • It could authorize a county public bank to protect against the next global recession
  • The Charter Commission will gather input from the public in every area of the county for what would be the best custom fit for this county. 
  • It is the path forward to protect our county, our families and our future
