According to a story in the San Diego Union-Tribune the Carlsbad City Council is asking staff to continue investigating the pros and cons of becoming a “charter city.”
Carlsbad is currently a general-law city, meaning it gets its powers from state laws and the Legislature. A charter city derives its powers directly from the state constitution, giving it broader powers.
Is more power a good thing?
