I COMMISSION BUSINESS Chairman Heitman noted that as a result of tonight's public meeting, the Charter Commission has requested an alternative to 8.05.02 from Mr. Schnelle and that he would like Council's input regarding Charter Revision #6. Commissioner Greenberg noted that there are numerous minor corrections necessary in the charter, such as typos. Commissioner Bauerkemper suggested that after all revisions have been made to the charter, that it be submitted to a professional typist for typing and clean- up. Discussion ensued regarding the likelihood of Council setting an election date 60 days after receipt of charter rather than 90 days. Commissioner Gamec inquired as to why the people who are in. such a hurry to see the charter voted on, don'~ ~come forward ~d state so; he only hears from the people who want the election delayed. If the Charter Commission would approach Council with a document they have confidence in, Council may agree to set an election prior to 90 days. Commissioner Bauerkemper stated that Charter Commission minutes dealing with Section 8.05.02 should be reviewed in order to refresh our memory as to why we wrote it the way we did.
