Council amends electioneering ordinance

by | Sep 16, 2020 | Latest

In amending its electioneer­ing ordinance last week, Wylie City Council did away with the scramble by candidates to put up signs near city owned polling places every morning and take them down every evening.

The city council made the modification in the ordinance at a regular meeting Tuesday, Sept. 8. Other council business included approval of a natural gas rate case settlement with Atmos Energy and renewing the mayor’s COVID-19 declaration of local disaster.
