Town leaders change tune on discrimination when contacted by ADF attorneys (Evangelical Examiner)
Thursday, August 27, 2009Evangelical Examiner: "Alliance Defense Fund attorneys have received a positive response to a letter they sent to the town of Elk River urging it to stop its discriminatory policies restricting the use of its public library and park for religious purposes. The city has rescinded its problematic facility access policies, scrapping a library access policy that flatly banned religious meetings and rewriting a recreation facility policy that charged religious groups extra fees that other non-profits were not required to pay.
Elk River had recently inserted discriminatory language to its policies restricting rental access for the religious use of its library community room and Lions Park Center recreation area."
