Summary

A proposal to amend the city charter to replace an elected mayor with an appointed city manager/chief administrative financial officer was discussed and tabled for later consideration.

A lengthy proposal to amend the city charter and ordinances so that the city would replace its elected mayor with an appointed city manager — described in the item as a chief administrative financial officer appointed by the city council — was presented to the Turner Rules Committee Tuesday and tabled for future consideration.

The sponsor said the topic requires deeper study and did not expect substantive debate at the committee meeting. Members agreed the subject is significant and requested more time to gather information and determine the proper timeline for a charter change; several said it may be more appropriate to consider during the next council term.

The committee voted to table the order and left it in the committee jacket for later review.
