Charter Review town hall to be held this week
Monday, March 4, 2024 by Elizabeth Pagano
The Charter Review Commission will hold another community town hall to discuss proposed changes to the city’s guiding document. The hybrid meeting will take place at 5:30 p.m. March 7 in the boards and commissions room, with registration for virtual speakers online through 4 p.m. on March 6. In-person speakers can register until the meeting is convened. The commission is tasked with identifying changes to the City Charter that will then have to be put on the ballot by City Council and, ultimately, approved or denied by voters. A draft of those proposed changes can be found here. The commission is scheduled to provide recommendations to City Council by the end of this month.
This whisper has been changed to correct the speaker registration information.
