Points of discussion which prevailed relating to #5: <br />Some members felt there was nothing to be gained by rushing a charter change <br />through in a special election; that possibly a "fatal package" to present to <br />voters at a special election after the fall election would be best; others <br />felt that many charter changes could be submitted to the City Council and handled <br />by them reasonably soon--if we don't NEED a special election. <br />Some members stated that the question of the number of council persons should go <br />to the voters. Members discussed the (possible lack of) voter turn-out at a <br />special election and thought that possibly the issues would be voted upon by a <br />larger number of persons if it were presented at the fall general election. Some <br />members stated that with adequate publicity of the issues and proposed changes-- <br />voters would turn out in large numbers for a special election. <br />Generally, members questioned whether what NEEDS to be cone CAN be done in what <br />seems at this time to be a limzted time-frame. <br />
