Title
2025 Board and Commission Onboarding and Refresher.

Body
Action Requested:
All City of Northfield Board and Commission members are required to review the attached information as an onboarding/refresher as they begin a new year of service on their specific board or commission.

Summary Report:
As part of our annual onboarding/refresher, board and commission members will need to complete the following documents at the first meeting of the year.

* Oath of Office - Staff will be giving all new and reappointed members the oath of office. This must be notarized and returned to the Administration office.

* Public Disclosure Form - Staff will be providing the Public Disclosure Form to all members during the first meeting of the year. For 2025, this form is required for all board and commission members. Due to recent changes to City Code, only members of the City Council, Planning Commission, Economic Development, Hospital Board and Heritage Preservation Commission will continue to have to sign these forms annually after 2025. All other board/commission members will only fill out an updated form if information they provided in 2025 changes. It is the responsibility of the board/commission member to update this information.

If a member cannot attend the first meeting of the year, it is their responsibility to complete the form and have it notarized. They can contact Administration staff to schedule a time to come into City Hall to have the form notarized. This form must be completed to take part in the next meeting of their respective board or commission.

* Equal Opportunity Form - Staff will be providing the Equal Opportunity Form to all members during the first meeting of the year. This form is used to gather information on the demographics of our City's boards and commissions as it relates to strategic plan goals. T...
