Membership is comprised of seven City of Woodinville residents and two community members to serve as non-voting (ex-officio) commissioners. Applicants are interviewed by the City Council in a public forum. Successful candidates are appointed by the Mayor subject to confirmation by the City Council. All members are appointed to staggered, three-year terms. A Chair and Vice Chair are elected annually. Commissioners are volunteers and not compensated.

The Commission encourages community disaster preparedness and crime prevention. The Commission hosts and participates in events that promote these important initiatives.
