Council Committees

Your City Council is organized into seven standing committees which were created to review and analyze all City policies and programs and make necessary recommendations back to the full Council. Each committee consists of three Councilmembers and each Councilmember will chair at least one of the Committees.

Council Committee Agendas are available in the City of Bakersfield's Laserfiche Document Management Application. Please make sure you have all pop-up blockers disabled before trying to access documents from this area of the website.

Council Committee Calendars are available on the City Calendars webpage.
