Town Seeks Residents To Serve On Charter Revision Commission, Deadline To Apply Is Feb. 13

NORTH BRANFORD, CT — The Town of North Branford is looking for residents to serve on a Charter Revision Commission, according to the office of the Town Manager.

The Town Charter is the document that sets the basic rules for how our local government works. The Charter defines the roles of the Town Council, the Town Manager, and other elected and appointed officials. The Charter Revision Commission will review the Charter and consider whether changes should be recommended to better serve the community.

Possible topics for review include:
• The structure and organization of Town government
• The duties and powers of elected and appointed boards, committees, commissions, and positions
• How the Town budget is developed and approved

Commission members will meet regularly over the next several months to study the Charter, discuss possible updates, and gather public input. The Commission will make recommendations for changes to the Town Council as allowed under Connecticut law.

Applicants must be residents and registered voters of the Town of North Branford. No special background is required, but an interest in local government and community service is important. Per Section 10-3 of the Town Charter, members of the Charter Revision Commission may not serve on other boards, committees, and commissions concurrently.
