Chair announces outreach to form resident-led charter commission
Summary
A member leading the meeting said they are soliciting community input and letters of interest to start a resident-first Charter Commission and will provide an update next week.
The member leading the meeting, identified in the transcript as the Chair, said during new business that they are reaching out to community members to gather information and solicit letters of interest to form a Charter Commission.
"I am in the process of reaching out to community members and getting information and input on starting a Charter Commission," the Chair said, adding the commission would be "resident first." The speaker said notices and a call for letters of interest will be posted and that an update will be provided next week.
The announcement did not include a schedule for appointments, eligibility criteria for the commission, or a formal timeline for how the charter process would proceed. The Chair said only that community members should expect to see a notice and that more details will follow.
The meeting record shows no motion, vote or formal adoption of rules for the proposed commission at this session; the Chair framed the remarks as an early-stage outreach and informational step. The Chair said they considered the charter commission important from previous council service and intends to move forward with resident-led recruitment.
