Boards & Commissions
Members of the City’s boards and commissions are considered “officers” of the City and are governed by both local and state statutes. City staff members conduct orientation sessions for new board members twice per year to provide a short course on local government and home rule cities, the Open Meetings Act, and Conflict of Interest statutes. The City Council appoints members to its standing boards in February and August each year, as well as appointing members to fill positions vacated throughout the year. If you are interested in serving on a board or commission, or have questions regarding City Boards and Commissions policy questions, please contact the City Secretary’s Office at 254-298-5700.
