About Boards and Commissions:

• Boards and commissions are the same. Each is established, specifies duties, and functions individually as quasi-judicial groups. Their main purpose: to give citizens a voice in the decisions that their local government makes.
• Boards/commissions review, discuss, and advise City Council regarding any case-by-case policy or program pertaining to their specific areas of expertise.
  • Read the Boards and Commissions Manual for more information about the work that these groups do for our City.
