About these lists

Members and their dates come from the people timeline: an appointment in the minutes gives an exact start; a stated length ("for five years") or expiry ("term expiring September, 1988") gives an approximate end; a Planning and Zoning or Board of Adjustment appointment with no length stated is assumed to run the usual five years, and the page says so. Without an appointment on record the dates are the first and last time the person is named on that board. Dates marked "approximate" or "first or last seen" are inferred, not stated by a document.

Board minutes are in the archive mostly for 1995–2015, and appointments are recorded in the council minutes, so some members and years are missing. The archive has no appointments to a tree board, a fire board, a cemetery board, a board of review. Names in an appointment that match nobody yet are shown as written in the minutes.
