In it's monthly Central Committee meeting, Loren Olsen, Chair of the Local Government Study Commission presented the measure to the Committee for approval. </p> <p> Jim Walseth, Chairman of the Gallatin Democrats said afterwords: "Gallatin County Democrats believe in fiscally responsible, good government. These measures will help ensure good local governance and will allow the City Commission to grow with the community. We learned that Bozeman is presently the only city in the state with self-governing powers but no charter. Bozeman can go from being behind this respect to being a leader -- for example, with the charter's provisions for ethics education and an ethics board. Resident should also welcome the requirement for a capitol improvements plan, updated annually. <br /> Here's a link to the <strong><a href="http://www.bozeman.net/commission/local_government_study_commission.aspx">Local Government Study Commission</a></strong></p> <p class="posted"> Posted by admin at <a href="http://www.gallatindemocrats.com/archives/weblog/2006/09/gallatin_democr.php">08:43 AM</a> | <a href="http://www.gallatindemocrats.com/archives/weblog/2006/09/gallatin_democr.php#comments">Comments (0)</a> </p> </div> </div> </body> </html>
