SAN FRANCISCO MAYOR DANIEL LURIE PUSHES CHARTER REFORM BALLOT MEASURES

SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) -- Mayor Daniel Lurie on Wednesday filed notices of intent to collect signatures for three proposed changes to San Francisco's city charter, setting the stage for possible voter consideration in the upcoming November general election.

San Francisco's city charter spans more than 500 pages and is among the longest municipal charters in the country. Lurie said the document needs to be updated to address how City Hall operates.

"This system works for the insider. It's bred corruption," Lurie told reporters Wednesday.

If the measures qualify and are approved by voters, they would make significant changes to how San Francisco's government is structured, how contracts are handled and how future ballot measures reach voters.
