A Public Hearing will be held in Newtown on Wednesday night about proposed changes to the town's Charter.  The Charter Revision Commission told the Newtown Bee that only a couple of changes were made at their last meeting and one outstanding issue was resolved Friday. 

Changes are being recommended on filling open positions on appointed Boards and Commissions.  An issue about minority representation among alternates to local boards and commissions was being researched by the town's attorney. 

The Charter Revision Commission, with a goal of making the document more user-friendly, must submit a draft to the Legislative Council by mid-October.
