Charter Commission Committees
At the Commission’s 8/11/21 and 8/25/21 meetings, we decided to split the commission into committees to better focus and direct our work on the many topics brought forth for consideration by commissioners and the public.
In January-March 2022, committees completed their deliberations and brought proposals to the full commission for consideration.
Below are the committees, committee members, leadership, and meeting times. Check out each committee’s page for information and updates on their specific work.
All committee meeting minutes & meeting recordings can be found on the Calendar and/or their Page.
