applicantsBy Stephanie Derammelaere The City of Rohnert Park currently has four vacancies for various volunteer positions on several boards, commissions and committees and is hoping members of the public will step up to get involved. The open positions are on the Bicycle & Pedestrian Advisory Com- mittee, the Building Appeals Board and acting as the Rohnert Park Representative for the Marin/Sonoma Mosquito and Vector Control District and the Sonoma County Library Commission. Each appoint- ment will play a pivotal part in either making recommendations that affect public policy and city improvement projects, studying and in- vestigating specific topics, or representing the city on a multi-agency board. “The Marin/Sonoma Mosquito and Vector Control District and RP nonprofit changes up the model the Sonoma County Library Commission are not commissions that the city council created,” says Joanne Buergler, City Clerk for the City of Rohnert Park. “These two positions are unique in that the for giving back to those in need person selected to sit on this becomes part of a multi-agency type By Katherine Minkiewicz of commission or board.
