  • Citizens’ Guide to the Government Study Commission

    Hazleton, PA
    Other

    This Citizens' Guide describes the Hazleton City Government Study Commission, established by voter referendum in May 2025, which will conduct a nine-month study of the city's current Optional Plan B government structure. The Commission will review Hazleton's form of government, compare it to eight comparable Home Rule municipalities (Altoona, Carlisle, Easton, Lancaster, Nanticoke, New Castle, Pittston, and Wilkes-Barre), and interview Hazleton's Mayor, Council President, Council Members, and Department Heads to assess structural strengths and weaknesses. Meeting twice monthly on the 1st and 3rd Tuesday, the Commission will then vote on whether to draft a home rule charter; if approved, it will have an additional nine months to draft the charter before it goes to voter referendum. The guide emphasizes that Home Rule authority allows cities to take any action not prohibited by law, whereas without Home Rule municipalities can only do what state law permits.
