Oakland Mayor Barbara Lee’s Working Group on Charter Reform released its final recommendations earlier this month, capping a comprehensive community engagement process that brought hundreds of Oakland residents into conversations about how city government can work better. Launched in August 2025 as part of Mayor Lee's 100-day plan, the Working Group – co-chaired by the League of Women Voters of Oakland and SPUR – spent five months gathering input from residents, experts, and stakeholders across Oakland through an inclusive, multi-faceted engagement process. As the City moves into the next phase of review, the League of Women Voters of Oakland and SPUR will host informational community sessions to help residents learn more about the Working Group’s final report and recommendations.
