Residents sought for Boards, Commissions and Committees

Lethbridge residents wanting to make a difference in their community are encouraged to apply to be on one of City Council’s Boards, Commissions and Committees (BCCs).

A recruitment campaign for a variety of positions is now underway and applications will be open until October 24 – to coincide with the 2025 Municipal Election. Check out our new recruitment video.

“Through this recruitment process, we are making every effort to let our residents know that serving on a Board, Commission or Committee is a worthwhile and productive experience,” says Ryan Westerson, Legislative Services Manager. “Each public role provides an opportunity to participate in the present and future direction of the city.”

Whether they are advisory, decision-making, quasi-judicial or governing roles, all of City Council values the input of residents appointed to these groups.

The Office of the City Clerk coordinates, on behalf of Council, board-member recruitment, appointments and training, as well as the establishment and classification of new committees and assists Council in developing guidelines for these bodies.

New for this year is the Community Requirements Appeal Board. Those interested in that Board should also apply for the Subdivision and Development Appeal Board, as candidates for both will be considered for both Boards.

Those interested are encouraged to refer to the BCC toolkit and list of Boards, Commissions and Committees for more information on eligibility, length of term, meetings times etc.

For more information, please contact the Office of the City Clerk through 311 or email: committee@lethbridge.ca.
