City of Bozeman Proposed Amendments to the Existing Charter: Keep the 2006 charter or adopt the amended charter
What does this measure do?
Voters choose between keeping Bozeman's 2006 city charter (the city's basic rules) or adopting an updated one with the same city-manager government. The update lets the mayor serve all 4 years as mayor, adds a board to suggest leaders' pay, and gives neighborhood groups a set role.

A YES vote means
The updated charter takes effect July 1, 2027. The mayor serves a full 4-year term with no deputy mayor years, a board suggests officials' pay, and the three sub-option votes can take effect.
A NO vote means
The 2006 charter stays, so the mayor still serves 2 years as deputy mayor first. The three sub-options on commission size and wards do not take effect, even if they win.
No financial records found for this ballot measure.
