Boards and Commissions

Boards, Committees and Commissions

The Town Council from time-to-time establishes local advisory boards, committees and commissions by ordinance or resolution.  These advisory bodies are responsible for making recommendations on a variety of topics to the Town Council for consideration and final determination. 

The Town Council recognizes there is a vast and largely untapped reservoir of talent that exists among the citizenry and to encourage public input and citizen participation, the Town Council appoints representatives to various local and countywide advisory boards, committees and commissions (boards and commissions).

The general purpose, responsibilities and terms of office for each board and commission are established by their respective ordinance or resolution and in accordance with the policies and guidelines established by the Town Council.  The general purpose, responsibilities and terms of office for countywide boards and commissions are established by their respective entity.
