These groups of resident volunteers assist City government with enforcing ordinances, resolving conflicts, initiating special projects and advising the City Council.
Each board/commission is focused on a particular area, such as police oversight, parks and recreation, public art, racial equity, the environment, historic preservation, planning, affordable housing and more.
A full list of City of Jackson boards/commissions and what they are tasked with is posted on the City website, cityofjackson.org.
Applicants may be residents or non-residents of the City of Jackson depending on the opening.
Interested applicants may submit a Board/Commission Application on the City website. Applicants will be selected by the Mayor, with final approval coming from the City Council.
These are volunteer positions. Each board or commission member serves a term specific to their appointment. Due to City ordinance, applicants will not be eligible for a position if they owe unpaid taxes or fines/fees to the City of Jackson.
