Volusia County Seeks Advisory Board Applicants

Posted

Volusia County, FL-The Volusia County Council is seeking applicants for positions on four advisory boards that research and make recommendations on topics

affecting the community.

· A licensed electrical contractor is needed to serve on the

Contractor Licensing and Construction Appeals Board, which hears appeals

of decisions and interpretations of the building official and the

contractor licensing manager and considers variances of technical

codes.

· The Children and Families Advisory Board is looking for

applicants who live in west and northeast Volusia County. This board’s

mission is to promote healthy children and develop strong families.

· The Personnel Board is also requesting applicants. The board

serves in an advisory capacity in the administration of the county's

personnel merit system and acts as an independent forum in the hearing

of adverse action, technical and discrimination appeals.

· The Volusia Growth Management Commission is seeking applicants

who live in unincorporated areas. This group fosters intergovernmental

cooperation and coordination in the provision of public services.

The advisory boards were established to give citizens input into what

happens in their community and to advise the County Council on matters

that affect residents and their county government. Applicants should

have the expertise necessary to accomplish the board's objectives, a

reputation for integrity and community service, and an interest or

experience in the area of board service desired.

Members will be selected by the Volusia County Council. Applications
