Your feedback helps us prioritize what to improve next.
The proposed Charter changes would keep the mayor’s four-year term synchronized with presidential elections and would not set mayor or commissioner pay in the Charter. The agenda process would allow any single commissioner to request an item for the next regular or special meeting, subject to required public-notice deadlines. The board also directed legal staff to draft language on single-member districts, Bay County residency requirements for certain officials, and other Charter updates.
