Governance committees’ final report and recommendations, to the board of commissioners of Coos County Oregon: Coos County’s system of governance is a 19th century model that struggles to meet 21st century best practices recommended by the ICMA (International City/County Management Association).

1959: Nikita Khrushchev came to the U.S and made the statement we will bury you. Stated that he was not referring to a literal burial, but that, through inexorable historical development, communism would

I would suggest that you read the Ordinance to Change Board of Commissioner and Create County Administrator: Please read Section 01.06.100: Composition of Board of Commissioners c. The Board shall adopt such rules of procedures as it deems
necessary and appropriate for conducting public meetings and other county business.

As it is now we can speak at public comments for three minutes. This now comes before the agenda items. How can we comment on the agenda item if we don’t know what is going to be said? Is this John Q public or their communities and councils?

I am voting for the Home Rule Charter “Voice of the Voters” measure 6-143 Section 19.4 stops this.
