Businesses FOR Proposal A

One Royal Oak – the campaign FOR Proposal A has released a new mail piece today featuring local Royal Oak business support.

“Keeping the Human Rights Ordinance in place is one small, but important tool in bringing our downtown to a healthy, vibrant blend. It is for this reason I ask you to vote in favor of keeping the human rights ordinance in place,” said Gary Baglio, owner of FIVE15 Media Mojo and Downtown Royal Oak Task Force.

On March 4, 2013 the Royal Oak City Commission voted 6-1 to adopt a Human Rights Ordinance that would ban discriminatory practices in employment, housing, and public accommodation on the basis of actual or perceived race, national origin, religion, color, sex, age, height, weight, pregnancy condition, marital status, physical and mental limitations, source of income, family responsibilities, educational association, sexual orientation, gender identity, and HIV status.
