About this listen

The Charter Review Committee convenes, introducing a new appointee, Robert France, who shares his extensive background in federal government and computer science.

The meeting then transitions into a detailed explanation of parliamentary procedure and decorum by Attorney McLan, emphasizing the importance of civility, fairness, and adherence to rules of order.

Following this, former Mayor Hardie Davis provides his "absolutes" for the charter review, focusing on the need for a strong, empowered mayor, clear lines of governance, and a future-oriented approach that transcends racial politics.

Finally, a representative from the Carl Vincent Institute of Government, John Holy, delivers an in-depth presentation on audit requirements and financial management best practices in Georgia, stressing the importance of independent external audits and the potential benefits of establishing an internal audit function and audit committee to enhance accountability and public trust.
