The Tillamook County Board of Commissioners is accepting applications for two vacancies on the Tillamook County Solid Waste Budget Committee. A background in government finance, accounting or business is helpful, but the most important qualification is an interest in, or knowledge of the Tillamook County Solid Waste programs and services that are offered by the County or required by law to be performed by the County.
Anyone who is a qualified voter of Tillamook County is eligible to serve on the Committee, except officers, agents, or employees of the County. Residents of North and South County are especially encouraged to apply to keep representation from each geographic area equal.
The Committee consists of six members, three of whom are the Tillamook County Commissioners and three members chosen from the community. The lay members serve three-year terms. The successful applicant would need to attend one formal Budget Committee meeting each year to develop budget policy and priorities and approve the County’s Solid Waste annual budget.
Interested applicants may contact David McCall, Solid Waste Program Manager, Tillamook County Public Works Department at 503-815-3975 or dmccall@co.tillamook.or.us, for more information about the committee.
