Become a Board/Committee Member
The most effective way for citizens to become involved directly in governmental programs is to serve on a citizen board or committee. Citizen boards are not legislative bodies; the extent of their authority is contingent upon city ordinances and/or state statutes.

Community members who serve on Brenham's boards and committees provide an invaluable service by assisting the City Council and City Staff with developing recommendations on important policy matters. Participation on a City advisory body is an excellent way to get involved in the community and your local government. It is an interesting and challenging experience that can truly make a difference.
