Volunteer needed for housing board

The city of Vancouver is seeking applicants to fill a vacancy on the Vancouver Housing Authority Board.

The six-member volunteer board is appointed by the mayor to establish policy for the operation of various assisted low-income rental housing and homeownership programs offered in the city and Clark County.

The vacancy is to fill a resident commissioner position, which is a two-year term. The candidate must be receiving Section 8 assistance or a public housing subsidy.

Regular meetings are held on the fourth Wednesday of the month, 10 a.m. to noon, with executive sessions often beginning at 8 a.m.

Housing Authority commissioners are identified as public officials under state law. Therefore, people with personal or business conflicts of interest — landlords with rental assistance contracts, vendors and those who do business with the VHA — may not be eligible to serve.

For an application or further information, contact Kerry Peck at 487.8616 or www.cityofvancouver.us/boards. Completed applications must be received by the city manager’s office by 5 p.m. July 5.
