Littleton Ballot Measures

Ballot question 3A:

Shall there be an amendment to Littleton City Charter Sections 19, 22, and 24 requiring the Mayor and City Council positions to be elected by the voters for 4-year terms?
___ Yes___ No

Littleton's mayor is elected by council, but should voters make that decision directly? Among Colorado's largest cities, only Littleton, Englewood and Grand Junction's mayors are elected by their councils. If approved, Littleton voters would directly elect their mayor, starting in 2021. A council member with remaining years on their term would be required to give up their seat to run for mayor. The direct-elect mayor position would have a four-year term — replacing the two-year runner-up at large seat.

Ballot question No. 300:

Shall existing medical marijuana center licensees in the City of Littleton be permitted to sell retail marijuana on and after January 1, 2021?
___ Yes___ No

If this measure is approved, the city's medical marijuana centers would be allowed to sell retail marijuana. A citizen initiative gathered enough signatures for the question to qualify for the Nov. 3 ballot. The city code currently allows four medical marijuana licenses. If the measure is approved, 7.5 percent of the sales tax on the retail marijuana would go to the city. Tax revenues could range from $935,000 to over $1,500,000, depending on several factors, according to petitioners.
