TRUST • HONESTY • ACCOUNTABILITY

Preserve Trust, Honesty, and Accountability in the Montrose City Charter!

Defend our City Constitution.

Trust - Public trust is essential for a city charter to serve as the local constitution —without it, charters become reactive and short-sighted; with it, they foster public engagement, honesty, accountability, and durability.

Honesty -  A Colorado municipal charter establishes the rules for self-governance, and a "home rule" city ensures that elected officials remain honest and accountable to its residents.

Accountability - For a Colorado municipal charter, accountability means the elected council and professional city management officials act ethically and honestly, use public funds responsibly, and justify their actions to the public and governing bodies. 

• Our community deserves all three. •
