  • The work group discussed a possible charter amendment to move municipal elections to even-numbered years.
  • The work group unanimously recommended that the Charter Commission proceed with public hearings on the proposal, and potentially place the charter amendment on the 2024 general election ballot.
  • Many commissioners were undecided on the merits of the proposal, weighing benefits such as increased turnout against concerns like reduced focus on local elections.
