The committee reviewed community survey results and discussed how those results should shape charter changes. Members noted that some survey questions may need clearer wording, especially around the city manager’s authority to settle claims. They also worked through draft recommendations on how often the council meets, how contracts for public works projects are handled, and whether settlement authority should be set by ordinance and tied to the contract approval limit. The final report is scheduled for further review at the committee’s December 4 meeting.
