Here’s my best guess at what the current committee openings are . . . I took out a few where you need to already be on another committee to get appointed. There are a few comments below. If the comment is in all caps it means that it is a requirement to get appointed. I’d really encourage anyone who is interested to apply. Don’t worry about making too long of a commitment. If you do a good job, you’ll only be on the committee for one term, because at some point you’ll state a strong opinion, cross the Mayor and he won’t reappoint you. So, its more important than ever that people step up and take their shot at making the city a better place to be – and make it a good one! If you’re interested, fill out an application and get it to the Mayor’s office.
