This collection consists of material representing Rundle's work on the City Commission during his three terms between 1987-1991 and 1999-2008. Records include correspondence regarding city board members, newspaper articles and other publications referencing city issues, audiovisual material, and oversize architectural drawings and publications that have been separated out from the rest of the collection. Further, the majority of the collection encompasses topical files regarding various city organizations and matters of city operation.

Duplicative materials may remain in the collection, and materials related to a particular topic may appear in more than one location in the collection.
