Section 24-22 of Pontiac's Human Relations and Social Services chapter establishes the organizational and meeting requirements for the human relations commission. After members are appointed by the mayor and confirmed by the city council, the commission must promptly elect a vice-chairperson and secretary from within its own membership. The commission is also required to hold regular annual meetings, as well as any additional meetings deemed necessary, all of which must take place at city hall or another suitable location.

While § 24-22 primarily governs the internal structure of Pontiac's human relations commission rather than landlord obligations directly, property owners and managers should be aware that this commission plays a role in the city's human relations framework. Compliant operators generally stay informed about when and where commission meetings are held, as these gatherings may address policies or complaints relevant to housing. Knowing the commission's meeting schedule and leadership structure can help operators understand how the body functions and how matters may be brought before it.
