Town Councilis dedicated to creating well-rounded, experienced, professional boards and commissions. Everyone's motivation to serve is unique but they all graciously volunteer their time, talents, and expertise to better our community. There are four standing boards on which to serve. Residency is required for P&Z and ZBA but not for CRB or PEDC. Ad hoc committees may be created by the Council, as needed, for projects such as rate studies, long-range planning, or special events.
Planning and Zoning (P&Z) Commission- RESIDENCY REQUIRED Commissioners make recommendations to the Council regarding zoning ordinance amendments, rezoning, planned developments, special use permits, and platting. Community Relations Board (CRB) CRB plans annual events including “Eggcellent” Easter, Movies in the Park, National Night Out, Public Safety Appreciation, Trunk-or-Treat, and “A Pantego Christmas”. Zoning Board of Adjustments (ZBA)- RESIDENCY REQUIRED This quasi-judicial body is a deciding (rather than advisory) board that considers requests for variances or exceptions to zoning requirements or other development standards.
No matter where you are in life, service on a board is a great way to be involved and get to know your neighbors better while helping to shape the future of our community. You can apply online or submit your application (PDF) at Town Hall (1614 S Bowen Road) or by emailing the City Secretary. The Council typically makes appointments in the spring, but you are invited to apply at any time and staff will maintain your application until the next review.
