City wants charter review volunteers

The City of Sisters is seeking volunteers to review changes to the city charter proposed by the city council.

The city charter is the document that defines the basic structure of Sisters' city government, much as the state constitution defines the structure of state government. The voters last approved the city charter, as a whole, in 1967. Since then, various changes have been made through supplemental elections.

The city council wants to update the 1967 charter with the goal of putting a charter update measure before city voters in May.

First, the council would like a citizens committee to review the proposed changes and determine if they would be acceptable to the voters. The review committee is expected to meet two or three times. Meeting dates and times will be determined based on the schedule of the committee members.

Participants must be registered voters in the City of Sisters. Submit a letter of interest by January 31 to Eileen Stein, City of Sisters, 150 N. Fir Street or P.O. Box 39, Sisters, OR 97759.
