Review and Discussion of Charter Commission’s Recommendations for Amendments to the City Charter
A third discussion on proposed amendments to Richfield's City Charter — last amended in 2013 — was scheduled for this work session, with the Charter Commission's executive members present. The proposed changes were expected to be reviewed, covering areas such as simplified language, expanded council authority for public purpose expenditures, alignment with state statutes, and clarification of mayoral emergency declaration powers. A key unresolved point heading into the session was the specific wording governing the Mayor's role during emergencies, particularly whether language should use 'will' or 'may' to define mayoral actions.
