Three-year staggered terms for mayor and alderpersons
Summary
Right now up to half the council can turn over in one year. This change staggers three-year terms so roughly a third of the council is up each year, starting with the 2027 election. It's a stability play — but it also means longer waits between chances to vote officials out.
