Bee Cave voters to consider citizen-petitioned ballot item

n November, Bee Cave voters will consider seven amendments to the city charter, including one that proposes major changes to how the city discusses and handles land transactions—Proposition G.

Of the seven items, Proposition G is the only one placed on the ballot through a citizen-authored petition by the group Bee Cave Vote to Amend, which garnered over 320 resident signatures.

What's on the ballot

Per the ballot language, if passed, the proposition would:
Require voter approval for the city to take any action or pass any ordinance addressing changes or transactions related to city owned real property.
Require all deliberation of such action to be done in a public, open session.
Not require voter approval of the city's purchase of real property, but require all details of such a purchase to be disclosed in a public, open session.
