City of Santa Rosa City Council Council Meeting

The council held a study session regarding the upcoming charter review process, discussing the legal basis of home rule, the 10-year review cycle, and the framework for appointing a charter review committee. The council also explored potential topics for future charter amendments, such as the establishment of a directly elected at-large mayor and the redesign of city districts. Additionally, the council reviewed operational guidelines for conducting hybrid public meetings, including procedures for public comment via Zoom and in-person participation, as well as the provision of interpretation services.
