The task force will be comprised of five to seven stakeholders, including commercial and residential property owners, small business owners, and representatives of nonprofit organizations. Task force members will be appointed by the mayor with confirmation by Commissioners.
The Stormwater Utility Task Force is expected to begin meeting in February and will likely sunset by July 2022. All task force meetings will be open to the public.
