REDMOND, WA -
The City of Redmond has an opening on the Human
Services Commission for anyone who lives or works within Redmond’s city limits,
or who lives in unincorporated King County on property with a Redmond postal
address. 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 March 31, 2017.
To apply, download a community service application here and email
to mayor@redmond.gov, mail it to the
Office of the Mayor, City of Redmond, PO Box 97010, Redmond, WA 98073-9710 or
fax to 425-556-2110. A copy of the community service application is also
available in the Mayor’s Office on the fourth floor of City Hall.
