Commissions

There are eight Commissions and Boards made up of residents of Northlake that assist the Mayor and City Council in making informed decisions. Some boards are advisory to the City Council and Mayor in certain areas while others have authority to render binding decisions.

If a vacancy occurs, city staff notify the news media, neighborhood associations, and people who have indicated an interest in applying. Applications for Board and Commission seats are accepted through the Mayor’s office and can be picked up at City Hall. A council committee consisting of three aldermen interviews each applicant. The committee then forwards its recommendation to the full City Council for confirmation. As needed, the City Council also seeks volunteers to evaluate and comment on special subject areas. This web page includes a brief description of each permanent board and commission, found to the left.

For more information on the Northlake Boards and Commissions, please contact the Mayor's office at (708) 343-8700, or via email at northlakemayor@comcast.net.
