On Monday, Rapid City Council set a special election date for February 20the 2018, asking residents if the city should raise water rates. Council approved the increase in November, but Citizens for Liberty kicked-off a petition drive to collect signatures to put it to a public vote….
Finance Officer Pauline Sumption(SUMP-shun)….
CFL Coordinator Tonchi (tawn-CHEE) Weaver said the amount of signatures collected in such a short period of time is proof that citizens don’t want the water increase…..
Sumption said the city attorney is working on ballot language.
