## Resource

COGE is racing to overhaul city operations, slashing red tape on construction permits and procurement to speed up housing and infrastructure — with a “one-stop shop” for permits and streamlined vendor processes on the table. But it’s not just about efficiency: voters also pushed for open primaries to boost civic engagement, sparking a legal battle over a previous commission’s disbandment. Meanwhile, COGE’s reforms could shave weeks off approvals — and maybe even reshape how the city buys everything from cranes to concrete.
