The Town of Paradise Valley seeks residents interested in sharing their time and experience by serving on one of the town’s volunteer committees.

This announcement recently went out via the Town Manager’s Weekly Update, and there’s still time for interested residents to throw their hat into the ring.

Volunteer opportunities include reviewing land-use applications and variances, organizing public art programs, preserving the town’s history, promoting public safety programs and resources, and providing other vital assistance to the town administration, the announcement explained. Specifically in this appointment cycle, there are vacancies on the Planning Commission, Paradise Valley Mountain Preserve Trust and Historical Advisory Committee, as well as other potential vacancies. A complete list of committees, their descriptions, time commitments, and their past actions may be viewed online at paradisevalleyaz.gov/98/Volunteer-Opportunities.

Lincoln Drive. The application deadline is Friday, January 31, according to the announcement. The Town Council will meet with applicants in early February and appointments will be made by the end of February. The terms of office will begin April 1.
