Residents of Newark, OH, have asked the city to repeal BSL. The Public Safety Committee discussed the issue, but the committee decided to wait and “collect more data” before making a recommendation. (Newark city council has been extremely reluctant to consider repeal.)
According to the council agenda, a resident(?) has provided a report to council in support of repeal. This report will be discussed during the August 20 council meeting. The council meeting begins at 7:00 PM in Council Chambers, 40 W. Main St., 1st Floor.
Contact info for public officials—please remember to be respectful—and also be aware that resident input will have the MOST impact on this issue.
