What are the standing Council Committees?
Legislative matters are often discussed by a standing Council Committee prior to placement on the City Council Docket. There are six such committees, with five Councilmembers serving on each. Each committee focuses on a different subject area as reflected by their names: Rules, Open Government, and Intergovernmental Relations (Rules); Land Use and Housing (LU&H); Public Safety and Neighborhood Services (PS&NS); Natural Resources and Culture (NRC); Budget and Finance; and Audit. For more information about the members of these committees and their meeting times see Council Committees.
