Stuart announces a schedule for visiting the municipalities within Orange County for the purpose of soliciting comments regarding the Orange County Charter from the members of the city commission and Orange County citizens attending these meetings. The Charter Review Commission, organized in January, consists of fifteen Orange County citizens appointed by the Board of County Commissioners. Their charge is to review the existing Charter which was adopted by voters of Orange County in 1986 and revised in 1988, 1992, and 1996. The purpose of the Charter is to provide Orange County with a structure of government that allows greater flexibility in dealing with the complex issues facing our community. Chairman Stuart stated, "We want the city and town commissioners and their citizens to know how they may contact the Charter Review Commission to express their concerns about the current charter. " Stuart asked, "Is there anything about the charter you as a citizen of Orange County dislike? Is there anything that should be changed? If so, this is one opportunity, in addition to regularly scheduled Commission meetings, to present issues to the Charter Review Commission."
