Boards, Committees & Commissions

A group of people high-fiving each other

Boards, Committees, and Commissions are important in that they enable the public to participate in local government processes. Their activities help shape and influence public policy, because they lend a more diverse viewpoint for the City Council to consider.

Public Improvement Districts (PID)

A Public Improvement District is a defined geographical area established to provide specific types of improvements or maintenance which are financed by assessments against the property owners within the area. PIDs provide a development tool that allocates costs according to the benefits received. A PID can provide a means to fund supplemental services and improvements to meet community needs which could not otherwise be constructed or provided.
