§ 4.130.020. Application for petition.

A.

An initiative or referendum is proposed by filing an application with the borough clerk containing the ordinance or resolution to be initiated or the ordinance or resolution to be referred and the name and address of the prime sponsor and an alternate sponsor to whom all correspondence relating to the petition may be sent. The application shall be on a form provided by the clerk. A deposit in the amount listed in the most current Kenai Peninsula Borough Schedule of Rates, Charges and Fees must accompany the application. This deposit shall be retained if an application fails certification. If the application is certified, the deposit shall be refunded. An application shall be signed by at least ten voters who will sponsor the petition. Within two weeks the clerk shall certify the application if the clerk finds that it is in proper form and, for an initiative petition, that the matter

1.

is not restricted by AS 29.26.100;

2.

includes only a single subject;

3.

relates to a legislative rather than to an administrative matter; and

4.

would be enforceable as a matter of law.

B.

A decision by the clerk on an application for petition is subject to judicial review.
