Seeking Candidates for Appointment to Vacant WA Board Seats!

9/23/22

​The Whittier Alliance has opened an application period for neighborhood residents, property owners, and business/nonprofit representatives to seek appointment to 6 vacant seats on WA's Board of Directors. We are mid-term for each of the vacant seats, meaning that those appointed to them will serve out the remainder of the term until the next neighborhood-wide annual meeting election in the spring of 2023 (4 seats - 2 resident seats & 2 business/nonprofit seats) or spring of 2024 (2 resident seats).

Applications for appointment will be reviewed by a Nominations Committee consisting of members from both the current Board and the community; They will review candidates to confirm eligibility and put forth a recommended set of candidates to the full WA Board who they believe will best support the organization's mission, values, current project work, and strategic plan goals. 

Selected candidates will be considered and formally appointed at the October 27th, 2022 Board of Directors meeting. Newly appointed Board members will begin their term immediately after. WA Board Meetings are held on the 4th Thursday of every month at 6:00 pm. The full application and and overview of Board Member duties, roles, and responsibilities are linked below.

Contact our Board Vice Chair, Danny Villars, with questions or further conversation about the opportunity at dcvillars@gmail.com. The application deadline is Thursday, October 20th at 11:59pm.
