Investors,<\/p>\n<p>(February 27, 2014) &#8211; House Bill 1318 was amended in committee on Monday to include the ability for Allen County residents to vote on an Allen County Single County Executive. This issue is one of our TOP PRIORITIES AND WE NEED YOUR HELP!!!<\/p>\n<p>Opponents of the bill are already flooding the inboxes and phone lines of our Northeast Indiana delegation asking them to oppose the bill. They are pressuring our regional leaders to maintain the status quo by defeating HB1318. If we are to be successful in our effort, we need your voice to be heard.<\/p>\n<p>WHAT CAN YOU DO?<\/p>\n<p>Call and email your Northeast Indiana House Delegation member!!<\/p>\n<p>We have included a list of contact information for all our legislators. We encourage you to contact them and URGE them to support the bill in its current form. Please feel free to reach out to more than one House and Senate member.<\/p>\n<p>The issues to emphasize with the elected officials at the Statehouse:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>It is NOT a mandate<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">It is Allen County only<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">It makes government more efficient and accountable<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">A business would never be run by three equal leaders<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">Please continue to support this language as it comes back to the House of Representatives (if communicating with House Members)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">Please support this language in the Senate on Monday (if communicating with Senate Members)<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">Our organization would greatly appreciate your support on this matter<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">This bill gives Allen County voters the CHOICE of what type of government they feel works best for them<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Please feel free to write your own letter

convenience, I have included the following points on the bill for better understanding:<\/p>\n<p><strong>What the bill does<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Places a referendum on the ballot allowing Allen County voters to decide whether to adopt a single county executive model of County Government<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">If the referendum is passed, it would transfer legislative powers to the County Council<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">In addition, if the referendum passes, Council districts would become nine single county districts<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">If the referendum passes, voters would elect the single county executive following two general elections<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">Gives voters the CHOICE to adopt a single county executive model<\/span><\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">Provides better representation by Council members because the districts are smaller in population<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>What the bill does NOT do<\/strong>:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>The bill does not pertain to any county other than Allen and we wish to keep it that way.<\/li>\n<li><span style=\"line-height: 1.5em\">The bill does not mandate a change to a single county executive model or to a seven single member Council model.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Thank you for your consideration and support.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<h3>Related Images:<\/h3><div class=\"ngg-related-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<a
