Joplin City Council to recognize outgoing commissioners, board members

(From the City of Joplin)

With more than 25 Boards and Commissions, the City of Joplin appreciates the many citizens who volunteer to serve on these committees. Board members serve various term lengths, and sometimes serve extended terms to help review City projects, plans and proposals.

On Monday, December 3, during the Joplin City Council meeting, Mayor Gary Shaw will recognize those citizens who have completed their terms this past year. Members will receive a recognition plaque and a thank you gift for their service.
