A strong, engaged, dedicated board of commissioners is one of the cornerstones to the success of a special district. It is important to have each seat on the board filled by someone dedicated to seeing the district succeed in serving the public’s best interest. When a commissioner vacates a seat, there is an opportunity to bring in someone to fill that seat with a fresh perspective and unique experiences of their own, which will help contribute to the board’s guidance of the district.

Upcoming Board Meeting:

 February 19, 2025, at 6:00 p.m.

Board meetings usually take place on the second Wednesday of each month beginning at 6:00 p.m.
