May 31, 1985 FILE - City Manager s�edE�fi: Charter AMandMent FROM Lucia A. Doug erty Rai`€fZENCE5: Partisan Election of Mayor City Attorney ENCLOSURES: The City Commission at its May 9, 1985 meeting adopted on first reading the attached ordinance which provides for a separate Charter Amendment (No. 2). This ordinance proposes a charter amendment subject to a referendum on August 13, 1985, that will mandate partisan elections for the office of Executive -Mayor if the proposed Executive -Mayor Charter Amendment is approved by the electorate. If these proposed ordinances are approved and adopted on second reading at the June 13, 1985 Commission meeting, it would then be appropriate to adopt a resolution calling for a special election on August 13, 1985 which is the election date designated in both of the ordinances.
