Why the charter matters
THE FUTURE OF
DEARBORN HEIGHTS
Most residents never read it, but the City Charter sets the rules for everything City Hall does.
How we're taxed, how the budget is built, and how much power residents have over decisions that affect their block.
Every few decades, voters get the rare chance to update it. This is that chance.
On November 3, Dearborn Heights voters will decide whether the city's charter undergoes a general revision — and, if it passes, choose the nine-member Charter Commission that would lead it. Sam Sakka is one of the candidates seeking a seat.
