## **Next Week is the Final Week for Referendum Signatures** Next week is the final week of the referendum signature process. We want to far exceed our target to show the incredible support we see from everyone we talk to about this issue. But you must help now to get it done.

Our team is going door by door, block by block, gathering lots of signatures. But it is a lot easier if you come to us, at the Farmers Market.

- If you vote at City Hall, you can sign.

- If you have signed or can not vote, ask every voter you know to sign.

- Share our Facebook and Instagram posts with your friends.

- Email this note to your network.

Don't miss your chance to have a say in our town's future! The new Harbor Springs zoning plan is up for a vote, but only if we act now. If we do not reverse the zoning, the nature of Harbor Springs will change forever. Every other great small town is changing. Your signature will make Harbor Springs the exception!

## What People Are Saying I encourage everyone to be informed and sign this petition. Do you actually trust government? Has someone actually spoke to you personally? Do you want some guardrails in place where a neighbor / planning or zoning would actually ask your opinion if building was real close to yours or a duplex was going in next door? Are you willing to learn about building next door when construction starts and no trespassing signs are posted? - Facebook Post

These are the same city government that brought you the Headlee tax override, paid parking, merchants walkway debacle, numerous lawsuits, on and on. The arrogance of dismissing property owners. I trust property owners not government. - Facebook Post
