Speakers:

Special meeting and public-comment hearing on a proposed charter amendment ("San Bernardino Good Government and Term Limits Initiative") that would add term limits, eliminate primary elections and replace the directly elected mayor with a council-selected mayor. Large, mostly opposing public turnout pushed the council to reconvene the Charter Review Committee rather than move the amendment directly to the June ballot.
