Residents looking to get involved in Hull’s town government have a unique opportunity to apply for appointment to three town boards – there are open seats on the elected school committee and redevelopment authority and the appointed Design Review Board.

The deadline to apply for appointment is September 8 for all three vacancies. Residents should send letters of interest and resumes to Town Clerk Lori West at town hall, 253 Atlantic Avenue, or lwest@town.hull.ma.us.

Appointments for the elected seats will be made by a joint vote of the select board and the remaining members of the relevant board. Successful candidates will need to run for the office in next spring’s annual town election to keep the seat.

The DRB is appointed by representatives of the select board, beautification committee, conservation commission, historical commission, and the planning board.

More information, including the specific responsibilities of each of the boards and committees, can be found at www.town.hull.ma.us/home/pages/volunteer-opportunities.

The Times will publish statements of candidates seeking appointment to these positions through our September 11 edition. Weekly deadline for a submitting statement of goals and qualifications, as well as a photo, is Tuesday at 5 p.m. Send your information to news@hulltimes.com or drop at our office, 412 Nantasket Ave.
