To be discussed at Tuesday's city council meeting:
» Community Values Ordinance: Through the Community Values Ordinance, we as citizens can have some authority by dictating values to business in our community. This ordinance would keep profits within the local community, promote fair competition, provide for living wages, maintain free-speech rights for the employees and citizens (human citizens), and promote ecological sustainability. Under the community values ordinance, large business entities, including big box stores, would get a report card score based on the community values listed above. Corporations that score below the minimum standard would be unable to locate in or remain in our community. Full text available here. |
