During February, two different federal courts came to different conclusions on the question of who may circulate an initiative petition. On February 8, a U.S. District Court in Colorado ruled that it is unconstitutional for a city to provide that only city residents may circulate an initiative petition to change a city ordnance. Chandler v City of Arvada, 00N 342. The decision is by Judge Edward Nottingham, a Bush Sr. appointee.
