Commissioners
In accordance with the Eugene City Charter, the citizens of Eugene elect a
five-member Board of Commissioners for the utility.
Four board members represent specific wards within
the city; the fifth member is elected "at-large" by all city voters. Each commissioner's
term is four years.
Commissioners hold regularly scheduled public meetings on the first Tuesday
of each month in the North Building at EWEB, 500 E. Fourth Ave. See meeting agendas and
supporting documents.
Customer-owners and community members can communicate with EWEB's elected board in a variety
of ways.
Opportunity for public comment is provided at each board meeting. See a schedule of upcoming board meetings to confirm
meeting dates and the time specified for "public input."
During the public input period, citizens or customers are invited to address the
board about any issue. Those wishing to speak are asked
to fill out a sign-up card, which is available at the meeting. Speakers are heard in the
order in which they sign up. Usually, three minutes is allowed for individual comments.
