Conroe city staff hosted two town hall meetings where residents provided feedback and shared requests to be included as charter amendments, including single-member districts, allowing the mayor a vote and adding more council member seats.
Attorney Charles Zech will spearhead the city charter amendments and act as legal counsel for the process, as previously reported.
During discussion at the Aug. 13 workshop meeting, council member Howard Wood said he did not see the residents' request in the charter amendments brought forth to council and was alarmed at how quickly the amendments were pushed onto the upcoming election.
