Nixa Home Rule Charter Referendum (April 2010)

There was a Nixa Home Rule Charter Referendum question on the April 6 ballot in Christian County voter voters in the city of Nixa.

This measure was approved

• YES 1,826 a
  
• NO 688

This measure asked voters if they wanted to adopt a home rule charter and become a more structured government that gives more power to the people of the city. Since it is adopted, a home rule charter means that the city can pass its own laws as is not strictly governed by those law set up by the state government. Since it is approved, Nixa is now the 41st Missourian city to have a home rule charter. This will also allow residents the ability to hold referendum petitions. Officials believe more citizen control over the government would help with more involvement.
