City of Kirkland issued the following announcement.
The City of Kirkland is recruiting residents to volunteer to serve on the Planning Commission.
The City of Kirkland is looking for an applicant to fill one vacancy on the Commission. While the city just finished our annual recruitment for Boards and Commissions, the Council’s selected alternate was not able to fill the position at this time.
The Planning Commission is currently meeting virtually in light of COVID-19. The Planning Commission advises the City Council on all matters relating to the Kirkland Comprehensive Plan and land use regulations.
Currently, the Planning Commission is working diligently on the Planning Work Program for 2020-2022, among other important topics.
This Commission is made up of seven members who serve four-year terms (and can serve up to (2) four-year terms). The Commission meets on the second and fourth Thursdays of the month at 7:00 p.m. Since the current vacancy occurred in the middle of the term, the new appointee will still be able to serve an additional (2) four-year terms if desired. This particular term ends on 3/31/21.
The deadline to apply is Tuesday, July 28, 2020 at 4:00 p.m. Applications should be sent to the City Clerk at Kanderson@kirklandwa.gov.
