Keep our Terra Linda Community Residential!The building will invade privacy by allowing views into neighboring homes, will block views, and the now discreet campus will become an industrial feeling business building. A building of this scale does not belong in our residential community and goes against the original Terra Linda Master Plan of neighborhood schools!201 of 300 SignaturesCreated by Terra Linda Cares

Teresa GiudiceTeresa Giudice was sentenced to serve 15 months in prison for a white collar crime. I say she can serve her time under house arrest so her four little girls can stay with their mother.106 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Alicia Guido

Ban Fracking in Illinois Fault ZonesSouthern Illinois is the nexus of two major faults zones, the New Madrid and the Wabash and a secondary fault line called the Cottage Grove Fault. Science and data continue to link increased seismic activity with fracking. Last week, a new report shows earthquakes in Ohio were triggered by hydraulic fracturing (http://bit.ly/11ZfObI). Oil and gas industry injections appear to be bringing faults to their critical thresholds. Earthquakes are not a gamble to which we should be subjected. Ban Fracking in the Illinois fault zones!1,127 of 2,000 SignaturesCreated by Tabitha Tripp

Citizen's Wolf Recovery VisionBeautiful, strong, and wild, America’s wolves once ranged across most of the United States. More than a symbol of wilderness, wolves have kept nature in balance and have helped maintain healthy populations of other important species. But centuries of hunting, trapping, and poisoning, and a government-sponsored eradication campaign, had essentially eliminated wolves from the American landscape. Today, thanks to the Endangered Species Act, wolves are finally beginning to recover in wild places and are once again a vital part of America’s natural heritage. Yet the Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS) has no plans to restore wolves to substantial areas of wilderness where they once lived. And, even more disturbing, FWS no longer wants to protect wolves as an endangered species. We have a responsibility to use the best available science to leave behind a legacy of protecting all endangered species for our children and future generations. We are gravely concerned that actions by state and federal agencies aim to undermine wolf recovery.33 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Endangered Species Coalition

Support the Ms. Agna playground expansion!This past June, due to increasing safety concerns, Jackson Street School had to make the very tough decision to remove the volunteer-built and beloved wooden structure, which had become an iconic play space for generations of Northampton families. As sad as the Jackson Street community was to bid farewell to the structure and gathering space, it views this moment as an opportunity to create a truly accessible, environmentally sound play and educational space, tied in greater measure to the best practices of outdoor play and learning which aid in building minds, bodies, and community. After a period of reflection and dialogue where students, faculty, staff, and families considered their options for moving forward, the Jackson Street community decided to expand a remaining play space (lovingly called the Ms. Agna Playground) and add an outdoor classroom, rather than build an entirely new playground. The community felt that this decision would yield the best stewardship of public and private resources and have the greatest positive impact. We must raise $246,771 and we need the CPA's help to do it!683 of 800 SignaturesCreated by Jo Comerford

Public hearing to consider a special land use request to allow a proposed 140’ monopole tower; discussion and possible action. We need to band together and STOP this from being erected near our homes! It will be detrimental to our home/property value, potentially hurting the increasing value of our NEW homes.

Please sign the petition, the Final Hearing is on November 5th, 2014 at the Lyon Township hall. If you can make the meeting, That would be even better.195 of 200 SignaturesCreated by Lisa

Amend the US Constitution to require citizens to vote.Voter turn out is embarrassingly low. Often election results do not reflect the general consensus. People are led to think their vote does not count, so they don't vote and are unhappy with the outcome. It is everyone's civic duty to vote. Many countries have compulsory voting. It's time we introduce it here before our elections are 100% bought/sold.11 of 100 SignaturesCreated by Jasmine Dahlby
