The editor reserves the right to edit or condense letters and to reject any letter.

Letters should be legible, preferably typewritten and double-spaced. Letters must not exceed 400 words in length.

The editor may restrict letters to one per individual or organization on a single topic. No letter pertaining to a ballot issue will be published during a 48-hour period prior to an election.
