Rochester Environmental Conservation Commission Seeks New Members
~
Do you feel it is important to keep our drinking water clean and abundant, preserve space for hunting and fishing, and provide spaces to enjoy the great outdoors, while balancing the needs of a developing community? The Rochester Environmental Conservation Commission (ECC) has seats available for interested citizens to participate in our town government. Help us conserve the natural features and open spaces that contribute to the rural character of our town.
Applicants should be knowledgeable in, or be interested in attaining knowledge on, the environmental and natural resources of the town; possess a compelling interest in the work of the ECC; be able to work as part of a team in a consensus-based decision-making environment; demonstrate dedication and commitment by attending regular monthly meetings, and be willing to share ideas and debate opinions in a respectful way in a public environment.
The ECC meets the second Thursday of each month at the Rochester Town Hall at 7 pm. Members shall be recommended by the ECC and appointed by the Rochester Town Board.
If you are over the age of 16, a resident, business owner, or property owner in Rochester and are interested in joining the Commission, please send a letter of interest and a resume to: Rochester ECC, Rochester Town Hall, 50 Scenic Road, Accord, New York, 12404 before September 1st, 2007.
