Apply for the Charter Review Committee

The City Council took action to set up a Charter Review Committee to help review and update the City's Charter. The goal of the committee will be to identify provisions in the Charter that should be corrected, clarified or modified in order for the Charter to be fully consistent with applicable state laws, aligned with current best practices for City operations and, in general, easier to understand and apply. The project will develop a comprehensive Charter Amendment for City Council consideration and approval and, ultimately, presentation to the voters at the November 2026 general election.

About the Committee

Seven members shall be appointed by the City Council/Mayor comprised of:


* One member representing each of the six City Council Districts nominated by the City Councilmember.
* One At-Large member nominated by the Mayor.

Six members shall be chosen by lottery comprised of:


* One member representing each of the six Council Districts.

Qualifications

* Must be registered voter living in the district they want to represent or for the Mayor's appointee, anywhere in the City. 

Applicants currently serving on another City Board, Commission, or Committee may also apply.
