St. Petersburg is on the lookout for enthusiastic residents to step up and fill important vacancies on several city committees. If you’ve ever wanted to make a difference in your community, now is the perfect time to get involved! The city has a variety of positions available, each with its own unique focus and purpose, so there’s something for everyone. Let’s dive into the details!
First up, we have the Advisory Commission on Aging, which is dedicated to advocating for the needs and concerns of St. Petersburg’s aging population. This commission is made up of 15 members, and they are currently searching for three new faces to join their team. The group meets once a month, and members serve a short-term commitment of three months. If you have a passion for supporting the elderly community, this could be your perfect fit!
Next, the Code Enforcement Board is seeking individuals to step in as they have two vacancies out of a total of seven members. This board plays a critical role in ensuring community standards are upheld by overseeing code and ordinance violations. Their responsibilities include setting compliance dates and analyzing fines related to any violations. If you think you can help keep St. Petersburg looking great, consider applying for this role!
For those with a passion for inclusivity, the Committee to Advocate for Persons with Impairments (CAPI) is looking for one new member. CAPI’s mission is to advise the St. Pete City Council on important matters affecting the disabled community. The Mayor will appoint members, who will then need confirmation from the City Council, adding an important layer to this vital position.
Another intriguing opportunity is with the Consolidated Plan Application Review Committee, which is also hoping to fill two vacancies. This committee deals with the recommendation of funding decisions for Community Development Block Grants. If you have a financial background, your skills could directly impact the growth and improvement of St. Petersburg.
The Development Review Commission (DRC) is currently looking to fill one vacancy. This commission is responsible for evaluating development proposals, and they are particularly interested in candidates who have expertise in areas like architecture, planning, landscape architecture, engineering, construction, or land use law. If you have the experience, your insight could shape the future of our city!
Finally, the Nuisance Abatement Board is on the hunt for one new member to help review cases of property misuse and contribute to improving safety in St. Petersburg. This position is essential for keeping neighborhoods safe and healthy for all residents.
If any of these committees pique your interest, you’ll want to act quickly! Applications for these committee positions will be due by a specified date set by the City.
