Thank you to Councilors Storch and Williams, Director Hellwig and former City Administrator Bonaparte

On Thursday, April 25, 2013, CSC conducted its first interviews of current elected and appointed officials. Our thanks to Director Martin Hellwig and Councilors Cory Storch and Rebecca Williams. We appreciated their candor and their very specific ideas for us to consider.

In a Subcommittee meeting on April 30, 2013,  Mr. Norton Bonaparte was interviewed via telephone. Mr. Bonaparte was City Administrator in Plainfield and is now City Manager in Sanford, Florida. He gave us insight from the perspective of a City Manager working under the Counci-Manager form that was interesting to us.

If you are a citizen who is following us via minutes, we have posted the minutes of our April 25 meeting that contain interview notes for Mr. Hellwig, Mr. Storch and Ms. Williams, and we have separately posted the summary of Mr. Bonaparte's interview.

All of our meetings are open to the public and all citizens are welcome to attend.

The next Charter Study Commission meeting is Thursday, May 2, 2013 at 7:30 p.m.  in the City Hall Planning Conference Room on the Second Floor, as we added this meeting to our original list and the Library was not available. No interviews will be conducted in this meeting, which we will use to review our charter provisions with the insight that we have gained in the last several months, and for planning.
