2022 Charter Review Commission to Hold Second Meeting
WHO:
Members of the Charter Review Commission
WHEN:
Tuesday, February 15, 2022
10am
WHERE:
Council Chambers
City Hall
WHAT:
Last convened as a Commission in 2014, the Charter Review Commission reviews the Columbus City Charter and may recommend changes. The Charter, originally adopted by voters in 1914, outlines the fundamental rights, powers and responsibilities of the citizens and their elected municipal officials. Any amendments to the Charter would require a vote of Council and the approval of Columbus voters during a future election. The Commissioners met previously on January 28 to organize the commission. They will now hold a second meeting to begin discussions on the Charter, and will receive a presentation from the City Auditor’s office on potential amendments.
Residents wishing to attend this hearing in person may do so in Council Chambers within City Hall, but must be masked per the City's indoor mask requirement. Please consider participating virtually either through Facebook or YouTube.
The timeline for additional meetings of this commission will be determined during this meeting.
