GILBERT, P.J.

A city clerk rejected an initiative petition for failure to comply with Elections Code section 9201, requiring an initiative petition to contain the "text of the measure" proposed for enactment.1 Proponents of the initiative petitioned for a writ of mandate. The trial court denied the writ. We conclude that the initiative petition complies with section 9201, and reverse.
