  • 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.

  • Legislative process | City of Lexington, Kentucky

    Lexington, KY
    Other

    The Lexington-Fayette Urban County Council, composed of a vice mayor, two at-large members, and 12 district representatives, follows a five-step legislative process to write, revise, and adopt resolutions and ordinances for Fayette County. Resolutions are temporary or diplomatic in character, while ordinances establish permanent rules and are codified in the Code of Ordinances, appropriate funds, or are required by law. Items originate in one of four committees (Budget, Finance and Economic Development; Environmental Quality and Public Works; General Government and Planning; Social Services and Public Safety), where they are researched and discussed by committee members who vote to pass or fail them. Passed items are reported out to the full council at a work session, typically about one month later, where all councilmembers discuss and vote on them. If an item passes work session, it advances to first reading at the next scheduled Thursday council meeting, followed by a second reading at a subsequent meeting; the council may vote to suspend rules and combine both readings immediately.
