AUBURN – City councilors from Lewiston and Auburn this week created a 10-member commission to plan for more cooperation between the cities.
City clerks are taking applications and councilors are expected to appoint members to the new group at their December meetings.
Auburn swears in its new City Council on Dec. 4. Lewiston meets on Dec. 5.
Each city will name five residents to the Citizens Commission on Lewiston-Auburn Cooperation. According to an agreement approved by both councils, two from each city will serve one-year terms, two will serve two-year terms and one will serve a three-year-term.
Councilors also directed their top managers and Lewiston-Auburn Economic Growth Council President Lucien Gosselin to begin advertising for a joint services coordinator, who will answer to the new citizens commission and city administrators.
