I'm interested in getting the Amendment process to match with this section: --- 2.1.1 Ballot Content
Nominations for Governing Board members shall be open for a minimum of seven days prior to ballot completion. (See s3.3 for candidacy details) Measures and Constitutional changes may be placed on a ballot by the decision of the Board or by a petition signed by more than 10 percent of the Electorate Group members. The Board Secretary will publish a complete and final ballot at least seven days prior to the start of voting. --- The current issues are: 1) can the OGB ballot Amendments (like changes) without a petition? 2) we need to define the petition process in more detail.
