CITY OF COMMERCE COMMISSIONS & COMMITTEES

Citizen participation in local government plays an important and active role in the City of Commerce. Elected officials and City employees cannot, by themselves, provide the time, energy, knowledge, and talent needed to keep Commerce the exceptional community that it is. To meet its many needs for skills and public service, Commerce looks for participation from its diverse and widely experienced citizens.
