Background

According to Montgomery County Voter Services' interpretive statement, the question is placed under Pennsylvania's Home Rule Charter and Optional Plans Law. It asks whether to form a seven-member government study commission to examine Conshohocken Borough's current form of government.

If voters approve, the commission would decide whether a home rule charter is advisable. If it is, the commission would draft one, and voters would decide whether to adopt it at a future election.

The same ballot lets voters elect up to seven commission candidates, whether or not they vote for forming the commission.
