Charter Committee Statement of Principles

The Charter Committee upholds the following principles and expects its endorsed candidates to do the same.

Independence:  Independent, non-partisan leadership that demands the use of recognized best practices in governance, government operations and service delivery.
 
Accountability:  Elected officials that adhere to the highest ethical standards in the performance of their duties.  Accountability is expected in government officials both elected and appointed.

Transparency:  Open government with policy decisions being made in public and effectively communicated to the public.

Fiscal Responsibility:  A responsible budget that is structurally balanced and arrived at through a transparent and timely process.

Regional Cooperation:  City Government collaborates with schools, other municipalities, and surrounding counties to create a smart and effective government.

Equity:  Policy decisions are fair and impartial and provide opportunities for all citizens and neighborhoods to access public services and public contracts.

Continuous Improvement:  Government tracks and utilizes data to set goals and priorities, to challenge and revisit assumptions in order to improve public services and processes over time.
