Charter Election Proposition D

Shall Section 2.10 “Meetings of the City Council” of the Charter of the Town of Addison, Texas, be amended to allow special meetings of the City Council to be called by three (3) councilmembers instead of four (4) as currently stated?

Impact

In addition to the City Council’s regularly scheduled meetings, special meetings may be called, on occasion, to discuss and take action on issues. Currently, the mayor or a group of four council members have the authority to call special meetings. This proposition would change the number from four council members to three. A survey of neighboring cities determined that other cities have similar procedures already in place. This more closely aligns with procedures in neighboring cities.
