Boards, Commissions & Ad Hoc
Committees
Existing Boards, Commissions & Committees
Boards, commissions and ad hoc committees are made up of
Goodyear residents and formed as advisory groups to the City Council. Members
of these groups are all volunteers and are appointed by the City Council. Depending
upon the purpose, stakeholders who are not Goodyear residents may periodically
be named to an advisory group. Boards and commissions are permanent groups
whose members usually have terms limits and rotate off.
Ad hoc committees are one-time committees with a limited duration
(usually a maximum of about one year) that are formed to study a specific issue
and make recommendations to Council. Ad hoc committee members are appointed to
serve for the entire duration of the committee. Examples of past ad hoc
committees are: Taxation Committee, General Plan Advisory Committee, City
Center Technical Advisory Committee, Public Safety Citizen's Advisory
Committee, and the Sanitation Committee.
Once appointed, the time commitment for each
board/commission/committee varies. Some meet on a regular schedule, others on
an as needed basis. Preparation for some meetings may require additional time
obligations. Once committed, members are expected to attend all regularly
scheduled meetings.
