City Clerk David Olson sent this via email to the city council today..

We are still certifying signatures on the Northland Petition, but the petitioners have the minimum number of certified signatures needed for a successful petition (3,032).  We will stop certifying at 40% more than needed, or we run out of signatures, but there are enough sheets left that it looks like we will get up to the 40% over (4,245)
