Redmond’s city limits. The City is
looking for a candidate interested in a broad spectrum of human service issues
including basic services, health care,
counseling, domestic violence and family support.
The Commission’s role is to advise the Mayor and
Council on general human services issues and to make specific funding
recommendations as part of the City’s budget process every two years. Desirable qualities of a commissioner include
a strong interest in the issues, a willingness to learn and a passion for
working to strengthen the City’s effectiveness in addressing these issues. Please note that individuals who work for or
serve on the board of directors of a human service agency delivering services
to city residents are not eligible for consideration.
The seven-member Commission currently meets the
second Monday of each month from 6:30 - 8:30 pm in the Council Conference Room,
Redmond City Hall. All board and commission members are volunteers. Applicants must complete a
community service application. The deadline for applications is 5 pm on October
7, 2016.
