Have you ever become fed-up with the way things happen in your city? Wondered why certain decisions were made? Thought you could do a better decision? Want to change the way things are done in your area but don't know how?
Decisions affecting local municipalities are made by the City Council. But they get input and recommendations from a variety of Boards and Commissions in each City. These Boards and Commissions are staffed by ordinaty citizens like you and you can learn how to get appointed to a local city Board or Commission.
NWPC-OC will be holding a training seminar on "How to Get Appointed to Boards and Commissions" in the near future. Mark your calendar and join us for this informative seminar. For more information, contact Joan Lars at j.lars@sbcglobal.net,
Sincerely,
Tammi McIntyre
