  • Citizens’ Guide to the Government Study Commission

    Hazleton, PA
    Other

    The Hazleton City Government Study Commission, established by voter referendum in May 2025, is conducting a nine-month study to evaluate the city's current government structure (Optional Plan B) and determine whether to recommend changes. The Commission's planned work includes reviewing the city's form of government, comparing it to other municipalities' structures, interviewing local and state officials, and meeting twice monthly to assess strengths and weaknesses. Following the study phase, the Commission will vote on whether to draft a home rule charter, which would allow Hazleton greater local authority to address citizens' needs rather than being limited to what state law permits; any proposed charter would then require voter approval at a city-wide election.
