There are many ways to serve the community and make an impact. The opportunities listed below are not subject to the annual appointment process by council because they are regional in nature, operate under a different authority, and/or members are appointed by another jurisdiction. The work done by each of these bodies is extremely important and contributes to the overall vitality and progress of our community.
Current openings are detailed on each commission's page.
Basset Creek Watershed Management Commission

The commission meets the third Thursday of every month at 11:30 a.m. in Golden Valley.
