If you accept an appointment to a City board, you may have to resign from any other board, commission or authority to which you were appointed by the City of Orlando or by another governmental agency. All Boards, unless otherwise noted, have a majority of members who are City of Orlando residents. Terms of Office Most Board members are appointed for two-year terms. Chairmen are elected for a one-year term with a maximum of two consecutive terms. Attendance Most Boards meet monthly with meeting times varying in length according to agenda items to be addressed.
Regular attendance is required.
All Appointment Information Forms are reviewed by the Nominating Board. References may be contacted and prospective appointees may be interviewed. Recommendations are forwarded to the Mayor for appointment or reappointment, subject to confirmation by City Council. In addition to appointment recommendations, this Board recruits individuals for Board consideration, plans orientation programs for Board members, serves in a liaison capacity to all other Boards to become familiar with specific issues and responsibilities so as to better serve the appointment process, and suggests policy or procedure changes in the City Board structure to the City Council.
