CivicLex’s Contract to Review Boards and Commissions up for Vote
Earlier this year, LFUCG released a Request for Proposals (RFP) to conduct an evaluation of LFUCG’s 69 Boards and Commissions, including their membership, structure, diversity, vacancy rates, appointment process, and more. CivicLex, in partnership with CivStart, a national nonprofit focused on local government technology, submitted a response to the RFP and were eventually selected for the project!
In this Tuesday’s Work Session, Council will take the first step in deciding whether to approve our contract. If approved, we will begin work on evaluating the accessibility and structure of LFUCG’s Boards and Commissions this spring, and conclude the project by the end of 2024. We’re very excited for the opportunity to work with LFUCG and Lexington residents to understand how the City’s Boards and Commissions could be more effective, efficient, and representative of our community.
