A petition turn-in and barbeque potluck Oct. 17 will be the final push for Keep Keizer Livable’s campaign for a controversial city initiative. The group has until Oct. 19 to gather 2,739 signatures of registered voters living in Keizer to be able to place the initiative on the March 8 ballot. But, the group is turning in the petition at 4:30 p.m. Oct. 18 at Keizer Civic Center, 930 Chemawa Road NE. As of last week, the group needed 500 more John Hancocks.
