The City of Goleta is looking for community members who want to get involved with the City. The city wants to fill one vacancy on the Public Engagement Commission (PEC). If you are interested in finding ways to engage community members to participate in local government, then this is a great fit. Please share this opportunity with any friends, family, or co-workers interested in public engagement.
The PEC advises the City Council on improving public outreach and increasing public engagement. Since the Commission began in 2017, it has provided recommendations to the City Council on moving to evening-only meetings, directly electing the Mayor and district elections.
The seven-member commission meets every other month. Members are compensated at the rate of $50 per meeting. To be eligible to apply, candidates must reside within Goleta City limits. There is one vacancy, which would fill an unexpired portion of a term ending November 2023, at which time you can re-apply for a four-year term.
For more information and to apply, please visit https://www.cityofgoleta.org/BoardsCommissions. Additional information can be provided by emailing cityclerkgroup@cityofgoleta.org. Applications must be submitted by Friday, March 17, at 5:00 p.m.
