Rights of Taxpayer Before Bristol Charter Group
The Bristol Charter Commission discusses ground rules for a taxpayers resolution to force a special town meeting on budget issues. A 200-signature petition can trigger a vote after budget deliberations, with steps from department requests to administrator review, council revision, public hearing, and final budget publication. The panel favors a town meeting over a referendum.
