Registered voters in the City of Pensacola will be voting on a new charter that will spell out how city government is organized and operated.

            The city government is presently set up as a Council-Manager form of government, comprised of a 10-member City Council and a professional City Manager.

            Under the proposed new charter, the government would switch to a strong mayor form of government where the mayor would serve as the top political leader and administrator.

            City voters will be able to vote on the charter change by mail when ballots are mailed to registered voters in early November.
