St. Louis City Charter Commission

The three proposals all came out of the meetings of the St. Louis Charter Commission, which reviews the charter every decade and makes recommendations for updates.

Three other proposed changes will be on the Nov. 5 ballot. They would require 60% approval to be adopted.

The board sent four other proposed charter changes to Mayor Tishaura Jones. Her office says she is reviewing the legislation.

The proposal would levy a 3% fee on the price of a short-term rental. The revenue would go toward affordable housing.

The proposals now go to the Board of Aldermen, which will then have the chance to forward proposals to city voters.

The St. Louis City Charter Commission released its draft recommendations for changes to the city’s charter. City residents will be able to vote on the amendments during the upcoming November general election.
