The city of Goodyear will hold a special, mail-in election in March 2021 to ask residents to approve updates to the city’s charter.
After a presentation by City Manager Julie Arendall, the council unanimously approved a resolution calling for the special election at its regular meeting Monday, Oct. 5.
Goodyear’s charter, originally adopted in 1987, has been updated several times, most recently in 2019, Ms. Arendall said, noting the last comprehensive review was conducted in 2004. In January, the council appointed a committee to review the charter and its recommendations were presented to the council during a work session in September.
