Background Information

 

At the February 19, 2020 Joint Meeting with the Charter Review Advisory Board, the North Port City Commission considered changing the construction portion of the districting and redistricting plans of the Charter to allow for three district seats and two at-large seats on the Commission, using the 2020 Census and becoming effective for the 2022 general election. 

 

Since that meeting, Vice-Mayor Luke has learned more of the history and reasons for the changes leading to the City Commission’s current composition.  As an affirmative voter on the motion passed at the February 19th Joint Meeting, Vice-Mayor Luke is requesting that this item be brought back to the City Commission for further discussion and possible reconsideration.
