Boards & Commissions Application

Applying to serve on a Wyandotte County Board or Commission is a great way to get involved! 

Becoming a member of a board or commission is an excellent way to take an active role in the decision-making process of city government. It offers citizens an opportunity to provide personal and professional knowledge in a meaningful and impactful way.

Many boards have members appointed directly by the UG Board of Commissioners. This is were you apply to be considered for Commissioner appointments.
