Disorderly Events Ordinance

LEAVE IT AS IS!  The ordinance has gone before everybody and their mother, and nobody except Councilman Scott Gruendl wanted it changed until a small group decided to try and get the ordinance repealed.  Chico Mayor Andy Holcombe told the KPAY Drive at Five AFTER the group FAILED to get it repealed that he would like to see the ordinance changed because of the “perception” of the ordinance.  My question is, if the group FAILED to get enough signatures why should anyone care about the perception of a small group?  Now the measure is getting tossed around by the Internal Affairs subcommittee.  My suggestion is to leave it alone, or get rid of it all together.  Police still have the authority to break up unruly gatherings,  this would have given the power to do so on a lower level.
