Paying to vote on Charter

The Pensacola City Council appears poised to set November 24 as the date for vote on the proposed city charter. It will be a mail ballot. Unfortunately, the City Council doesn’t won’t to pay for the return postage —-about $5K if only 25 percent of the voters actually vote. This seems a little off —paying the return postage will help more people participate and give a more accurate vote on this important document.
