SB2706 amends the City of Bristol's charter to change tax collection procedures, council member elections, and school board operations. It allows the City of Bristol to extend the tax collection period without penalty or interest for up to three months. The bill modifies the election process for city council members, stipulating that candidates for district seats must reside in those districts, while candidates for at-large seats can be nominated by any qualified voter. It also adjusts the terms of council members, starting their terms in January following their election.
