Noted that while public turnout at committee meetings was low, technical cleanup changes make sense as a separate straightforward measure, while more complex items require careful public understanding.

Appreciated the hard work put into the charter review and suggested that establishing a genuine ethics committee would help address ethical issues in the city.

Urged caution and recommended slowing down the process, suggesting that level one clean-up changes be put on the ballot this year while more controversial items wait until 2028.
