The City of Lynnwood has several Boards and Commissions that serve as advisory bodies and provide advice and recommendations to the city, the Mayor and the City Council. No experience is necessary, just a strong desire to make a difference in your community! #AllAreWelcome

Lynnwood's Civil Service Commission, established in 1959, administers a Civil Service system for certain Lynnwood Police Department personnel pursuant to State Law.  Personnel matters included in the Civil Service system are matters relating to the rules that govern the appointment, promotion, transfer, layoff, recruitment, retention, classification, removal, discipline and welfare of Lynnwood Police Department employees.

Our Civil Service Commission typically meets monthly and is consists of three members, who serve six-year terms.
