The City has vacancies on a number of our boards and commissions. If you have ever been interested in volunteering your time to give back to the community, this is a great opportunity. Each term is for three years and members can serve for two consecutive terms. If you have been on a board in the past and termed out, you can reapply for the same or different board after a period of one year. Terms begin on April 1 and end on March 31 of the following year. The City Commission will make appointments to fill the vacancies on our boards at the March 12 City Commission meeting.
