The Fishers City Council has only one standing committee that meets regularly, and that is the Finance Committee.  The Non Profit committee meets a few times during budget consideration to decide which tax exempt groups will receive funding from the city.  There have been other committees formed on an ad hoc basis in the past.

The council voted Monday to form a task force charged with studying the current committee system and how it might be changed.  The group will meet with City Attorney Chris Greisl to come up with recommendations for full council consideration in August.

The task force will consist of council members John Weingardt, Selina Stoller, Cecilia Coble and Crystal Neumann.

This discussion started at a recent council retreat when a proposal was raised to create a city council rules committee.
