Text of measure
Language on the ballot:[1]
| “ | Shall the City of Urbana establish by ordinance that privately owned public spaces respect the right of polite, non-disruptive free political speech?
Whereas expensive media campaigns have recently largely replaced ordinary political conversations between citizens, and, whereas much of the public space in which such conversations used to take place has been replaced with private malls, and, whereas since 1980 the state of California has successfully required that polite non-disruptive political speech be allowed at certain privately owned public spaces such as malls and parking lots. We request that the City of Urbana establish by ordinance that such privately owned public spaces respect the right of polite, non-disruptive free political speech.[2] |
