Citizen 411: The County Charter Amendments
Tracy, Teresa and Rachel interview Charter Review Commissioner and League member Janet Landesberg about the nine Clark County charter amendments that will appear on the Nov. 3 general election ballot. Some of the amendments are about elections and voter participation, some on transparency or accountability. Some address county fiscal decisions, and one deals with nominations to county boards and commissions. A few amendments will offer great change; others are operationally neutral. Which is which? Tune in!
