New Braunfels city leaders are looking into realigning the terms of the cityâs boards and commissions so appointments would occur only twice yearly â in the fall or spring.
The city now maintains 31 boards and commissions. Each board and commission have term dates, term lengths and requirements for eligibility unique to the creating ordinance, state law or by-laws of the body.
City Secretary Caitlin Krobot told New Braunfels City Council members on Monday that her office brings board and commission appointments for city council consideration every month of the year except June and July.
âThis process oftentimes can be confusing to the community about when weâre appointing folks, when do the terms start,â Krobot said.
