The Greater Hilltop Area Commission is an elected, volunteer body, established by city charter and serving as a liaison body between the Greater Hilltop community and Columbus City Hall.

Commissioners hear primarily issues related to zoning changes, variance requests, code enforcement and development within the community. Commission recommendations are sent to city staff and on to the appropriate legislative office.

Commission meetings are open to the public and are held on the first Tuesday of each month at 7:00pm in the conference room of the Hilltop Library, 511 S. Hague Ave. except as holidays and/or election days may prohibit.
(See below)

Members of the commission are elected to three-year terms by residents of the Greater HIlltop Area. Those elected are then officially appointed by the presiding mayor of Columbus.

Election of commissioners is held on the fourth Saturday of June, coinciding with the Historic Hilltop Bean Dinner.
