BACKGROUND:
This code change codifies similar rules and qualifications for membership on the various public boards and commissions staffed by the Department of Building and Zoning Services. Current code lacks any consistency for the qualifications of being appointed to one of the several public boards or commissions staffed though the Department of Building and Zoning Services, and in some cases resulting in residents that reside in the City of Columbus, but not Franklin County, not being eligible to serve.
