Amendment Process
The Charter Review Board determines whether any amendments are needed to the current City Charter. Once an amendment is proposed by the Board, a public hearing about the proposed changes will be established for public input. Any recommended or proposed changes are then presented to the City's Commission for authorization. Upon approval a referendum is held where an amendment is presented to the electorate for final adoption.
