CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas —A petition six years in the making cleared a major hurdle Tuesday when the Corpus Christi City Council voted to place the Fair Water Amendment on the November ballot. Armon Alex, director of the Fair Water Amendment, said the vote reflected the will of the community. Fair Water Amendment with over 12,000 signatures headed to November ballotCouncilmember Sylvia Campos has been advocating since 2020 to remove the exemption fee. The city charter requires only 5% of voter signatures for an amendment to move forward — a threshold the Fair Water Amendment cleared. "We will be mobilizing residents to the ballot to vote for the Fair Water Amendment," Alex said.
