The County is continuing to recruit a diverse range of dedicated community volunteers to serve on several municipal committees.
Citizen committees provide Council and staff with input about a wide variety of subjects through discussions, presentations and recommendations. Some committees also organize and participate in community events.
Becoming a member of a citizen committee offers residents a unique chance to volunteer their highly valued skills and knowledge to strengthen our shared sense of community.
The County is looking to fill the following vacancies:
- Elections Joint Compliance Audit Committee – 1 member
