CITY BOARDS AND COMMISSIONS
The City has standing citizen boards and commissions, whose purpose is to advise the City Council on a variety of issues. A few of the boards and commissions have quasi-judicial functions. All board and commission members are appointed by the Mayor with City Council approval. Whenever a vacancy occurs on a board or commission, applications are available at City Hall, and applicants are interviewed by the Mayor and Chair of that board or commission. The Mayor then makes his/her recommendation to the City Council. All members of City boards and commissions, except members of the Civil Service Commission, who must be City residents, need to live or own property in the City limits or urban growth area.
