Have you ever wondered just how the City of Fayetteville goes about selecting
persons to serve on its citizen advisory groups?
The City Board of Directors has adopted a "policies and procedures" statement in
order to (1) provide a broad cross-section of qualified individuals for service on the
appointed bodies; (2) provide an opportunity for participation in city affairs by
interested citizens; and (3) provide a means for full Board involvement in the
selection process.
To implement this policy statement, a file of prospective appointees is kept by
the City Clerk's Office for future appointments, and these applications come from two
principal sources:
1. Periodic paid news advertisements, which always appear on page 2
of an edition of the Northwest Arkansas Times. These are
generally placed at least two weeks in advance of appointments,
and they request that individuals notify the City Clerk's Office
of their interest in being considered for appointment. Each
applicant fills out a short form which gives them an opportunity
to specify why they think they're especially qualified for
appointment to a particular group.
2. Board members, city staff members, and interested organizations
and individuals who know of qualified persons often encourage them
to apply for appointment.
Once the filled -out application forms are received, the City Clerk's Office
circulates. copies to each City Director and the Board members submit preferences to
the three -Director Board Nominating Committee prior to their meeting. The Nominating
Committee meets in open session and recommends to the entire Board a limited number of
people for each appointment. The City Board, again in open session, makes the final
selection.
What are the qualifications for serving on a City committee? According to a
policy adopted by the Board on January 7, 1975,
The following criteria should generally be considered in making
appointments. Because of differences in the appointive bodies, however, the
relative importance assigned to the various criteria will vary with
different appointments. For example, the Planning Commission appointments
would normally emphasize experience and expertise in the subject matter.
Resides the general criteria below, special consideration (such as being an
organizational representative) may be important for some appointments.
1. Expertise and experience in the subject matter.
2. Interest in the subject matter.
3. Balance of appointive body in terms of personal
characteristics such as occupation, age, sex and
sections of the city residence.
4. Individual's ability to attend meetings of the
appointive body.
Willingness to serve.
