The City of Plymouth is served by several City Council-appointed boards, committees, and commissions. These voluntary citizen commissions advise the City Council on a variety of issues. Vacancies are typically publicized in local newspapers, the City newsletter, and cable channel 16. For upcoming meeting dates of any of the commissions below, please check the calendar of official City meetings .
Meetings are open to the public.
The Charter Commission is an independent body appointed by district court and is not a typical board or commission created by the City Council. However, the City Council is interested in the work of the Commission and vice versa. The Charter Commission deals with issues related to the City Charter. The Charter details the structure of Plymouth's city government as well as the procedures it follows. The Environmental Quality Committee makes recommendations to the City Council on general environmental issues.
