Office of District Waterways Management Establishment Temporary Amendment Act of 2024
This temporary bill amends the rules for the District Waterways Advisory Commission to align its member appointment process with other similar groups in the city. It adds the Department of Parks and Recreation as a non-voting member and changes the meeting schedule to occur every two months instead of monthly to allow more time for stakeholder input. The legislation also grants the commission the authority to decide when the district's waterways plan needs updating, extending the required review cycle to at least every three years. These changes are designed to improve how the commission operates and engages with the community regarding local waterways.
