I have yet to see a solid reason presented as to the need for the currently proposed Charter amendment.
I didn’t see any good reason for any of the previous amendments either. But perhaps this is because in all matters of this nature I am guided by something Jefferson wrote, “It is the natural propensity for the functionaries of every government to gather unto themselves the rights and property of their constituents.”
Seems to me that charter amendments can be one means toward that end.
