Rosemount Opens Youth Commission Membership Applications

From The City Of Rosemount: Rosemount’s young people who’d like to have a bigger say in their community are encouraged to apply for membership on the Youth Commission.

The Commission advises the City Council on issues relevant to youth in Rosemount. Commissioners can learn about and advocate the needs of their generation.

The Commission also works with other groups, such as the Rosemount Area Arts Council, to arrange community events.

The City is recruiting applicants to serve during the next school year. The Youth Commission currently has 16 members, half of whom will leave the group after graduation this spring.

Membership on the Youth Commission is open to residents of the City of Rosemount between 14 and 18 years of age. Terms run for one year, and Commissioners can be reappointed. The City Council appoints new Commissioners after reviewing applications and conducting interviews.

The Commission typically meets at City Hall on the fourth Wednesday of each month from 3:45 to 4:45 p.m.

For more information and an application form, visit www.ci.rosemount.mn.us/youth or phone 651-322-2002. Applications are due by March 24.
