Council Amends Rules for Liaison Appointments, Clarifies Selection Process
The City Council approved Ordinance 26-M-029, amending council rules regarding the appointment process for city council liaison positions.

The ordinance aims to enhance transparency and provide clear procedures for these assignments.
