Boards & Commissions Vacancies

There are numerous ways residents of the City of Ferndale can participate to help enhance the community they live in. One such way is volunteering to serve on city advisory bodies that help form public policy and make Ferndale a prosperous place to be.

We currently have an opening on the Parks, Recreation and Trails Advisory Board (PRTAB), the Arts Commission and the Tree Board. If you are interested in serving on one of these bodies, please fill out the Boards and Commissions application and submit it to City Clerk Susan Duncan. You can find the application here.

All these meetings are open to the public. Appointments to these advisory bodies are made by the Mayor and confirmed by the City Council.

Now Accepting Applications for City Council Vacancies

Applications are now being accepted to fill two vacancies on the Ferndale City Council due to the resignation of two Councilmembers.

Both vacant seats will be on the November ballot as two-year, unexpired terms; therefore, those appointed will serve only until the November election has been certified, at which point those candidates who prevail in the election will take office and serve for the rest of 2019, as well as the remaining two years on the unexpired terms.

Applicants should plan to attend the June 3, 2019 regular City Council meeting, during which they will have an opportunity to introduce themselves. The selected applicants may be sworn in that evening, and will begin to serve immediately. For instructions and an application packet, please click here.
