Hear ye! Hear ye! Enstar and the city of Homer are standing at the back of the church, getting ready to walk up the aisle. If you approve, throw rice. If you object, write a letter to the city. Correction: You must write a letter to the city, as all do-nothings will be counted as yes votes. At the time of this writing, 316 objections had been received; approximately 1,600 more are needed to void this marriage.
This sounds like insurmountable odds, but stay positive. You get one vote for every property that you own within the city limits, and one vote if you are a condo owner. Your letter has to be written on the city’s official objection form, which you should have received as a property or condo owner. The city will fax or email you another copy if you’ve lost the first one. Please note that your objection has to be hand-delivered or received at the Office of the City Clerk by 5 p.m. Friday. If you have any questions, please call the city at (907) 435-3198. Thank you.
