    At the Tuesday, December 7, 2021 delegation meeting Representative Clemens is proposing a local bill at this meeting which would create a 2022 ballot referendum to fundamentally change the Alachua County Charter. It would create five single member districts and add two at large seats taking our commission to seven members.
    .
    Bait and switch from Chuck. Last December he promised to file a Sprungs County bill in August, 2021.
    .
    Now he wants to spoil Alachua County by making the Commission as dysfunctional as Gainesville. And no matter what, a legal Republican majority district CANNOT be legally drawn. The demographics are not there.
