					<description><![CDATA[Next up for the Pinellas County Charter Review Commission: dual voting and term limits. Both are issues that county residents have expressed concern over since the CRC was established last year. The term-limit debate goes all the way back to the 90s. It&#8217;s set for discussion at the CRC&#8217;s Wednesday, February 17 workshop. A public meeting, which will include time for public comment, will be held immediately after the workshop. The CRC will discuss the dual vote matter at its&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[Proponents of recall provisions for elected officers in Pinellas County may have cause for both celebration and defeat. During Pinellas&#8217; January 6 charter review commission meeting, board members examined the topic, but unanimously voted against further pursuing it &#8212; and ultimately against adding it to the 2016 ballot &#8212; deciding that the measure is already enforced enough throughout the county.      According to Florida Statute, any member of the governing body of a municipality or charter county &#8220;may be&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[It&#8217;s looking like members of Pinellas County&#8217;s charter review commission will welcome in the new year with a human rights discussion. On the January 6 meeting agenda is the matter of amending language to the topic&#8217;s section (2.02) of the Pinellas County Charter – basically, the county&#8217;s constitution – to say &#8220;gender and sexual orientation,&#8221; rather than just &#8220;sex.&#8221; The current version of this portion of the charter reads as follows: &#8220;The county shall establish provisions, pursuant to state and&#8230;]]></description>

					<description><![CDATA[When asking the public for suggestions to improve the county charter, Pinellas County probably hoped for a stream of ideas. What they didn&#8217;t expect was a flood. As commissioners for the County Charter Review board begin getting to work, citizens — especially those connected with the Tea Party — have been eagerly waiting to chime in. During the most recent public hearing &#8212; and in e-mails which were sent both before and after the hearing &#8212; waves of recommendations came in on how to change&#8230;]]></description>
