The Durango Herald: Durango’s No Secret Police committee has gathered enough signatures to send a proposed ordinance banning law enforcement officers from wearing masks to City Council.

The committee had 30 days to gather 1,047 valid signatures – 15% of all votes cast in the last municipal election – from registered electors in Durango by March 6 to advance its proposal.

City spokesman Tom Sluis said the committee returned 84 petitions by the deadline, and the city clerk’s office stopped counting signatures after verifying the group surpassed its benchmark with 1,051 signatures from 50 petitions.
