Boards, Committees, and Commissions

One of the duties of the Mayor of the City of Greenfield is to appoint members of municipal boards, commissions, and advisory committees. In most cases, these nominated appointees must also have their nomination affirmed by a vote of the Greenfield City Council. Serving on a municipal board, commission, or advisory board is a great way to get involved in your community and participate in municipal government.
