We’re down to the last few days to sign the petition to get the 3‑to‑5 question on the ballot. Don’t just assume other people are handling it — if you think folks in Douglas County should actually get to vote on this, take a couple minutes to go to a signing event or ask for a house call so you can add your name.

All this petition does is give the community the chance to decide. Seriously, ask yourself why anyone would be against letting voters weigh in. That alone should tell you why signing matters.

Our county’s grown like crazy, but representation hasn’t kept up. It’s time to join other big counties and expand the Board of Commissioners to five members.

It's a big day for signing the 3 to 5 petition that everyone's been talking about.

Only 8 more days so sign asap, and if you've already signed, tell your friends. Even if you're not sure, this petition only puts it on the November ballot, then the voters decide.

Douglas County citizens should be able to decide for ourselves whether we want better representation by electing five commissioners, and by district instead of at-large

Please help get the question on the ballot - do we want better representation on the board of commissioners by increasing to 5, and voting by district instead of at large?

Right now, only 3 commissioners represent 400,000 residents, and control a budget of $756 million of our taxes. That number hasn’t changed since we became a county of 10,000 residents.

It only takes two for a majority and we've seen how they make decisions to benefit their donors, not their constituents. Bumping the number up to 5 commissioners, voted on by district, not all at-large, would add some oversight and accountability to the Board of County Commissioners.

We need thousands of signatures from Douglas County registered voters to get this on the ballot this fall to let the voters decide. Please sign the petition by July 22

Here is a list of signing events with more constantly being added.

This is so important and the signature requirement is high. We need everyone to make the effort to sign, please!

I've been using a CPAP machine for sleep apnea for about a year and a half and love it, but lately I keep waking up with watery irritated eyes. My eye doctor can't find anything really wrong and thinks it may be a tiny bit of air leakage blowing into my eyes, even though it seems like a have a great seal. Has anyone tried using a sleep mask over your eyes to prevent air leakage from bothering your eyes? Do they make anything like this for CPAP users? I can't find one special for CPAP, but thought I'd just try a regular sleep eye mask.

Thanks!
