Posted On: August 25, 2015
Volusia County’s Charter Review Commission will hold its organizational meeting at 6 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 3, in the second-floor Volusia Room of the Daytona Beach International Airport, 700 Catalina Drive, Daytona Beach.

The charter, passed in June 1970 in a countywide vote, requires a citizen review at least every 10 years.
Commission members are Dr. T. Wayne Bailey, J. Hyatt Brown, Frank Bruno Jr., Frank Darden, Patricia Drago, Stanley Escudero, Dr. Philip T. Fleuchaus, M. David Haas, Peter Heebner, James Stephen Morris, Patricia Northey, Glenn Ritchey Sr., Derek Triplett, Mark Watts and Lisa Ford Williams.
