Council rescinds previous rule on charter amendments forwarded to voters
Summary
Council enacted an ordinance rescinding a prior rule that required forwarding charter amendments from the charter committee directly to village electors without further council review or amendment.
The council enacted an ordinance rescinding a prior ordinance that had required the council to forward all charter amendments proposed by the charter committee to village electors without additional council review or amendment, a presenter reported.
The speaker described the enactment as a procedural change to how charter amendments are handled; the recorded recap did not include a vote tally or further details about the prior ordinance's origin or the specific procedural effect beyond removing the automatic-forwarding requirement.
The village did not provide additional context in the summary about whether this change affects any of the six charter amendments approved for the November ballot, other than indicating the council reviewed and separately approved six amendments to be placed before voters.
