Hollywood's ballot amendment won't be counted because of wording error

HOLLYWOOD - With voters already going to the polls, Hollywood found a major mistake in the wording of one of its charter amendment items, number 6. Now votes on that item will not count.

The amendment was supposed to give residents more power. If approved, it would allow citizens to vote on whether some city-owned properties could be sold or leased, taking that power from the commission.

The ballot question says nothing about shifting the approval role to voters.

Hollywood's longtime city attorney Doug Gonzalez turned in his resignation over the error.
