City appointees fill spots on boards, commissions
The Spokane City Council on Monday filled positions on about 25 boards and commissions that have seats reserved for city elected leaders. Some seats are advisory or liaison positions, others allow members to cast votes.
With the exception of the appointment to the Airport Board, which previously was reserved for the City Council president, the selections were made without much controversy.
