GREELEY, Colo. — Residents who want to make a difference in Greeley now have an opportunity to step into public service. The City of Greeley is inviting community members to apply for vacant positions on boards and commissions. These volunteer groups help bring resident voices into local decision-making.

“Residents who serve on boards and commissions help ensure local government is informed by the community, not separate from it,” said City Clerk Heidi Leatherwood. “Their involvement brings valuable perspective to policies, programs and long-term planning.”

Boards and commissions advise city leadership on topics that affect daily life in Greeley. Examples include accessibility, human relations, stormwater and construction standards. These groups help ensure city policies, services and plans are shaped by the community.

Recent Appointments

In March, the City welcomed three new appointees to its boards and commissions. Their service will help support transparent, responsive and community-informed government. Congratulations to the following new members:

  • Chris Garcia, Civil Service Commission
  • Jennifer Remmers, Commission on Disabilities
  • Zachary Armstrong, Stormwater Board

The City appreciates all residents who step forward to serve on boards and commissions. Their time and expertise help connect city government to the people it serves.

Vacant Positions

For residents interested in serving, several boards and commissions have vacancies. The City is accepting applications for:

  • Commission on Disabilities: two seats
  • Construction Trades Advisory and Appeals Board: two seats
    • One seat requires a building background.
    • One seat requires an electrical background.
  • Human Relations Commission: one seat
  • Youth Commission: nine seats
    • Two seats are for ex-officio adult advisor positions.

Application Process

No prior experience is required to apply. Applications are due by 8 a.m. Tuesday, April 21. Residents can learn more and apply on the city’s Boards and Commissions webpage.

After the application deadline, interviews will be scheduled between May 4 and May 8. City Council is expected to make appointments at the May 19 City Council meeting.
