Sacramento Press: A new "strong mayor" discussion at Sacramento City Hall may be just around the corner.
Mayor Kevin Johnson’s office wants to present the draft of a new strong mayor proposal to the City Council in early June, Johnson staffer Kunal Merchant said Monday night.
Johnson’s office is aiming for a City Council vote on the proposal in mid-July, Merchant said at a town hall meeting on the proposal.
The proposal’s backers hope to gain City Council approval in mid-July in order to place the plan on the November ballot.
A draft of the proposal has not been completed. At this point, the plan is an outline which can be read at the campaign’s new website.
