At least with code home rule and a Board of Commissioners there appears to be a balance of power of the elected public servants even though we do not have a plurality of parties yet. This Charter Board has the power to abolish this effort. The Commissioners no longer have a say in your actions. Do the right thing, and make a movement to abolish the Charter board effective immediately, put it up for a VOTE so we will have a record of this evidence when Charter Fails yet again.
Give Charles county at least one election in 2026 where the districts can actually elect their own commissioner - THEN, Citizens might support growing government, and move for a vote in 2028 which would be honorable. Your time and energies are valuable, put an end to this obvious plan to shut down District representation. https://nochartercharles.org
