Committees

Each of the City Council committees is made up of three different members of the Council, with the exception of the Negotiations Committee, which may have more than three members. The members of each committee are designated by the City Council at large, and the Chairman for each committee is selected by the Mayor from the three members which are designated for each respective committee. Several of the committees also have separate advisory boards which are made up of non-elected citizens that are also appointed by the Mayor. One example is the Downtown advisory board, which is made up of residents and business owners from the Downtown area.
