These positions are voluntary, and members will serve without financial compensation. The committee’s primary role is to advise the Board of County Commissioners (BOCC) and the County Administrator. Members will be responsible for providing monthly written updates on their progress and submitting a final comprehensive report at the conclusion of their work.
The initial term for committee members is set for one year, with the possibility of extension by a majority vote of the BOCC. The committee is expected to hold meetings on a monthly basis.
Individuals interested in applying must submit a complete application package, which includes:
