The Alachua County Board of County Commissioners is seeking applications to fill openings on the Environmental Protection Advisory Committee (EPAC). EPAC currently meets on the first Tuesday of each month at 6 p.m., at the Environmental Protection Department Conference Room A, located in the Seagle Building (408 W. University Avenue, Gainesville).
EPAC provides an opportunity for citizen involvement on environmental issues and concerns affecting residents of Alachua County. It advises the County Commission on appropriate measures to safeguard air, water and natural resources, as well as the responsible management of public lands and natural resources. Terms are for three years unless a person is appointed to fill a partial term. EPAC currently has four at-large positions and one alternate vacancy.
Interested residents may apply online (scroll down the page to the Environmental Protection Advisory Committee).
