Charter Review Commission
Background
Adopted by voters in 2005 and put in place in 2006, The San Juan County Home Rule Charter calls for a review by an elected Charter Review Commission after 5 full years of operation under the new form of government, and at least every 10 years thereafter. This is the current version of the San Juan County Charter.
The Charter Review Commission began work on January 21, 2021, electing Kevin Ranker as its Chair and Olivia Roseberry has its Vice Chair. The Commission shall conduct special and regular, public meetings with notices posted on the County’s online calendar. Meetings are currently held via Zoom on Wednesdays, 4:00pm-6:30pm*.
