Charter Review Commissioners will present information on potential changes to the county’s charter and seek feedback from town hall participants.

Proposed amendment subjects include ranked choice voting, charter preamble, County Council/Executive Elected Officials’ consultation prior to appointing a new county manager, council vacancy appointment and initiatives and referendum.

The Charter Review Commission is tasked with reviewing the county’s home rule charter approved by voters in November 2014.
