§ 27424 Petition Signature Verification

• •The person in charge checks if the signatures on a petition match the ones on file.
• •They tell the board if there are enough valid signatures or not.
• •This is to make sure the petition is real and follows the rules.

A group of neighbors wants to add a new playground in their area. They collect signatures to ask the local government for it.

The local official checks if the signatures on the petition are the same as the ones people used when they registered to vote. If enough signatures match, the official tells the board the petition is good to go. If not, the petition might not be accepted.
