Denver Ballot Measure 2F was on the ballot as a referral in Denver on November 3, 2020. It was approved.

A "yes" vote supported amending the city charter to remove language requiring city council meetings at certain times and certain council meeting procedures, thereby allowing the city council to set through ordinance the required procedures and scheduling of meetings to conduct public business while continuing to require meetings to be held at regular times and to be open to the public.

A "no" vote opposed this measure to provide the city council with more flexibility over when and by what procedures it holds public meetings, thereby leaving language in the charter requiring meetings to be held on Mondays.


A simple majority was required for the approval of Ballot Measure 2F.
