Overview
In June 2024, the City of West University Place City Council appointed nine residents to review the City's Charter and recommend changes they deemed necessary, if any. The Charter Review Committee made its final report to the Council in November 2024 with three amendments.

All three amendments were approved by the majority of voters.
