How are resident commissioners appointed to the Finance Commission?

The Town has a long standing Council policy which defines the appointment procedures, responsibilities and actions of the applicant, the Town Clerk and Town Council. If Measure A is approved, all current appointment procedures, responsibilities and actions would remain the same with one change: each Council member would appoint one applicant to the Finance Commission. This is to ensure diversity of views on the Commission and increases the accountability of Council members in the appointment process.
