- Staggering council terms
- Increasing the salary for the mayor and council members
- Increasing the number of registered voters required to initiate a removal process
- Increasing the required vote threshold for removal of council members
Council members Carolyn Vaughn, Kaylynn Paxson and Gil Hernandez requested the discussion be placed on the agenda for Tuesday's meeting.
