Redmond’s Parks and Trails Commission accepting applications for two open positions

Published 2:08 pm Friday, February 24, 2012

The City of Redmond has two openings on the Parks and Trails Commission.

One must be filled by a resident within the city limits and the other must be filled by a resident living outside city limits, but with a Redmond address. Anyone who fits this criteria and thinks Redmond’s parks, recreation and trails are high priorities is invited to apply.

Commission members advise and make recommendations to the mayor and City Council concerning acquisition, development and improvements to all park facilities. They also make recommendations and provide input on recreational programming. The commission meets on the first Thursday evening of the month at City Hall. All board and commission members are volunteers.

Applicants must complete a community service application. The application process will remain open until the positions are filled. For more information or to request an application, call the mayor’s office at (425) 556-2101 or download an application from the city’s website.
