What it does
Shall the Charter of the Village of Oakwood be amended by adopting new Section 13.07 to provide Council shall be authorized to make typographical corrections to or changes or deletions in, as well as changes in the form of, the Charter; however, the changes shall relate to matters of form; or, to make the Charter consistent with Ohio law, upon advice of the Director of Law; that any such modification, change, or correction shall, in all cases, be approved by resolution of Council, prior to going into effect; that no modification, change or correction shall affect the construction, meaning, substance, or intent of the Charter as adopted and amended by the people, except where the change corrects the Charter to comply with Ohio law?
A YES vote means
Oakwood Council could, by resolution, make typographical and form corrections to the charter, or changes to match Ohio law on the Director of Law's advice, without changing the charter's meaning except to comply with Ohio law.
A NO vote means
The charter would not give Council this power to make corrections.
Needed to pass
A simple majority: more than half of the YES and NO votes on this measure must be YES. Leaving it blank doesn't count either way.
Left–right lean
Not a left–right issue: a procedural or local question that liberals and conservatives don't typically split on (AI read of the official ballot summary).
