J <br />Michelle Wolfe, City Administrator jJJJJ <br />City Commissions, Committees, and Task Forces <br /> <br />Last summer, Council indicated a desire to review the structure and procedures for the various <br />City commissions, committees, and task forces. At this time there is no consistent process for <br />how any of these groups operate, how they are formed, how they appoint members, etc. Mayor <br />Aplikowski and I began a process of reviewing past practice and examples from other <br />communities to try and develop some guidelines for how the City operates its committees, <br />commissions, and task forces. We then discussed these ideas at the June 2005 Work Session. <br /> <br />Attached is a document the Mayor and I put together in June 2005. We have made a few minor <br />revisions. The document attempts to identify existing committees/commissions and task forces, <br />provide some discussion points, and describe different types of committees. A procedure for the <br />formation of task forces is included, as is a short process description for the formation and <br />operation of Council Committees. There is a description of the current appointment process for <br />standing committees, and a proposal for changing that process. Finally, there is a discussion <br />regarding work plans and annual meeting/evaluation with standing committees. <br /> <br />This is basically a listing of ideas to initiate discussion. City Council's input is requested at this <br />stage, to ensure we have consensus moving in the same direction. Comments and direction <br />received during this discussion will be incorporated into a more formal report and outline for <br />discussion and action at a future meeting. <br /> <br />Attachments <br /> <br />MW <br />lIMetro-inet.uslardenhillslAdminICommilteesIGuidelines and Procedures- General\3-15-06 Memo to Council RE <br />Procedures. doc <br />
