Special Charter County Meeting

Monday, November 6, 2023 · Government meeting record

The 30-second read

Record incomplete

The Monroe County Board of County Commissioners is holding a special meeting to discuss and provide direction on a draft Home Rule Charter. This charter would transition the county from a non-charter government to a charter government, potentially changing how the county exercises its powers and manages local affairs.

Why it matters

If adopted, this charter would fundamentally change the legal structure of Monroe County government, granting it broader self-governance powers and establishing new rules for the Board of County Commissioners, the County Administrator, and the public's ability to recall officials.
