The Mayor and Council
have appointed various committees and commissions
to assist them as they fulfill their duties as Council
Members. It is impossible for the Mayor and Council
to be in all places at all times, so they have appointed
the committees and commissions to study issues and
provide the information and recommendations to the
Council for their decision.
The Planning and Zoning
Commission was created by ordinance to formulate and
administer any lawful plan duly adopted by the Town
Council for the present and future growth and development
of the Town pertaining to the use of land and buildings
for any purpose; to make a continuous study of the
best present and future use to which land and buildings
shall be put within the Town; and to recommend to
the Town Council revisions and such plans which, in
the opinion of the Commission, are for the best interest
of the citizens of the Town. It is the duty of the
Planning and Zoning Commission to hold public hearings
when necessary; to make recommendations to the Town
Council on all matters concerning or related to the
creation of zoning districts, the boundaries thereof,
the appropriate regulations to be enforced therein
and amendments to the Town Code, and the official
Town Zoning Map.
The Advertising and
Promotion Committee was appointed by ordinance to
help the Council in promoting tourism in the Town of Pinetop-Lakeside
throughout the State of Arizona and the southwestern
United States. The Committee provides recommendations
to the Council regarding contracts with advertising
and public relations agencies. They meet and develop
an advertising plan and budget and present those to
the Council for approval. They also report back to
the Council on a regular basis.

in learning more or becoming part of a particular
commission or committee, please contact the Town through
