From time to time, the Town Council appoints advisory committees of town residents to perform detailed studies of issues that are important to the Town. These committees may work with the Town Manager, town staff members, and other individuals and report their findings to the Mayor and Town Council for formal town action. Residents who would like to serve on an Advisory Committee are encouraged to contact any member of the Town Council or the Town Clerk.
