Changes in the way City Council members vote and how they are compensated, the power of the mayor to appoint council committees, and the authority of the city manager to execute contracts are proposed as Milton moves to modify its charter.
The city, incorporated in 2006, has given formal notice of charter changes under its home rule powers that also would add or implement a definition of cultural arts, modify the definition of environmental protection, and strike language regarding the due dates for municipal taxes being the same as for Fulton County taxes.
The council is scheduled to consider the Home Rule Charter Amendment at its regular meetings starting at 6 p.m., May 21 and June 4, at Milton City Hall, 2006 Heritage Walk. Copies of the proposed amendment are on file at the city clerk’s office and in the office of the clerk of the Fulton County Superior Court.
