Schertz City Council Workshop Meeting - June 16, 2026

The Schertz City Council held a workshop meeting on June 16, 2026, primarily focused on reviewing and potentially revising the process for assigning council members to various city boards, committees, and commissions. The discussion centered on establishing a transparent, fair, and consistent assignment policy that balances seniority, workload, qualifications, and member interest. Council members debated the merits of a tiered system for committee assignments, the importance of continuity versus rotation, and the need to consider time commitments given members' full-time jobs. They agreed to proceed with a process based on seniority, allowing members to select assignments in order, with limits on the number of selections at a time, and to revisit the assignment process every two years in December. The council also emphasized the distinction between voting members and liaisons on boards and the importance of balancing committee workloads. No specific contract awards, RFPs, or procurement decisions were discussed during this meeting.
