BACKGROUND (Consistency with Adopted Plans and Policies, if applicable)
October 11, 2021, a majority of Council supported an initiative for the city administrator to bring forward a Resolution to create a City Charter Review Committee. Prior to drafting the resolution we asked Dan Clark to share his expertise on the State's local government review process and city charters throughout Montana.
Since those Council work sessions no direction has been provided by Council on how to proceed.
Please see the 5 attachments: 2021 City Charter Committee Initiative, Montana Local Government Review Timeline, Resolution Template, City Charter and The National Civic League Model City Charter - 9th edition 2021 example.
