Two Village Charter Questions Pass In Barton Hills

Two measures will amend the charter in Barton Hills Village.

With Tuesday’s voter approval, the village will now have the authority to contract services for maintenance and improvements to any private road in the Village, as long as 51-percent of the homeowners on those roads, approves.

With that 51-percent approval, it also allows the Village to defray the costs by levying a special assessment on homeowners.

Had either measure failed, the other would not have been enacted.

Nearly three-quarters of David Fair’s 20+ years in radio has been at WEMU. Since 1994, he has been on the air at 5am each weekday on 89.1 FM as the local host of NPR’s Morning Edition. Over the years, Fair has had the opportunity to interview nationally and internationally known politicians, activists and celebrities. But he feels the most important features and interviews have been with those who live and work here at home. He believes his professional passions and desires fit perfectly into WEMU’s commitment to serving a local audience.
