Two PBG Ballot Questions for November Election

---

The fall election will have a complicated ballot. Way down at the end, on the back of page 2 of the ballot, beyond the candidates, beyond the 11 State Constitutional Amendments and past the two Palm Beach County questions, are the following:

Proposition 1 – Amendment of the City Charter

Proposition 1 asks:
“SHALL THE CITY CHARTER OF PALM BEACH GARDENS, ADOPTED IN 1976, BE AMENDED AS SET FORTH IN SECTION 1 OF ORDINANCE 20, 2012 OF THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS?”

and

Proposition 2 – Property Tax Exemptions

Proposition 2 asks:
“SHALL THE CITY COUNCIL BE AUTHORIZED TO GRANT, PURSUANT TO S. 3. ART VII OF THE STATE CONSTITUTION, PROPERTY TAX EXEMPTIONS TO NEW BUSINESSES AND EXPANSIONS OF EXISTING BUSINESSES THAT ARE EXPECTED TO CREATE NEW FULL-TIME JOBS IN THE CITY OF PALM BEACH GARDENS?
