Greg Purvis, Chairman of the CityYes PAC.
Greg Purvis, Chairman of the CityYes Political Action Committee announced today that volunteers at polling places yesterday obtained one thousand more signatures of Fishers' residents on the petition to change Fishers from a town to a City.
This brings the signatures obtained far over the number required to place the question of conversion of Fishers form of government from a Town to a City on the ballot. The petitions will be presented to the Fishers Town Council in early 2010 so that voting on the issue can be scheduled for the primary election in May.
Purvis commented, "with Fishers approaching a population of 75,000 people voters seem to feel that it's time." CityYes believes that the community has grown to the point that it needs to become a city with an elected Mayor and a City Council more directly representative of Fishers voters.
