Title
Amending Section 33.16(7) of the Madison General Ordinances to update responsibilities and revise terms/composition of Early Childhood Care and Education Committee.

The terms of members are changed so that they begin in October rather than May. May is the busiest month for this body. Finally, the size of the committee is reduced from eleven members to nine.
