The Role and Structure of Working Groups

Standing and ad hoc working groups are appointed by the Civano Neighbors Leadership Team to research and reach consensus on proposals for consideration by the general membership. They serve to involve Civano Neighbors members in formulating neighborhood association responses to short- and long-term issues affecting the community. They also strive to keep neighbors informed of these issues and anticipated political, land use, economic, and related processes and outcomes.

Working group chairs are appointed by the Leadership Team and serve as ex officio members of the Leadership Team for a period of up to 36 months.
