Workgroups

To ensure progress on work items and to prepare materials for upcoming elected or appointed public official meetings, most public bodies utilize one or more workgroups - commonly referred to as committees, subcommittees, task forces, teams, etc.

Workgroups are responsible for work as assigned by the board and take no action on work not authorized by the public body. All work product and recommendations are forwarded to the public body for official action.

Descriptions for workgroups, their scope of work, and their standard agendas are posted.  A workgroup may meet regularly, periodically, or as needed dependent upon the work item.  Workgroups may be either standing (ongoing) or ad-hoc (established as needed and then dissolved). A workgroup commonly includes a public body representative, varied departmental staff, non-appointed volunteers, interns, contract labor, and/or professional experts. Minutes for each workgroup are available at City Hall.
