Boards and Commissions
The City Council seeks input and advice from the public through a network of advisory boards, task forces, committees, and work groups. Participants are typically community members interested in making an impact on a particular policy topic or area of service. Time commitments vary, from regular monthly meetings on long-term policy topics, to short-term task forces that work for a few months on a specific issue and then conclude their work.
These advisory groups are just one aspect of our commitment to the full spectrum of public participation, as outlined in the IAP2 Spectrum of Public Participation.
Who Can Volunteer?
In general, volunteers must reside in Corvallis or within Corvallis' Urban Growth Boundary, or be employed or self-employed full time in Corvallis.
Appointments are made by the Mayor as well as by staff in City departments, depending on the nature of the vacancy.
