Current Board and Commission Openings

Volunteers who serve on Gilbert's Boards and Commissions play an important role in developing and sustaining our community. Our volunteers dedicate countless hours every year, lending their time and talents to help make Gilbert a better place to live, work and play. Some board and commission members apply professional or technical skills, while others simply bring a passion for Gilbert and a willingness to work as part of a team. Whatever board or commission they serve on, members are making a difference in their community.

Through participation in a board, committee or commission, Gilbert citizens can become involved in their local government, provide input, and make recommendations to the Town Council. To apply, sign up to be notified of a board, committee or commission opening.

You will receive an email each time there is a board, committee or commission opening. Just click on the link in the email to be directed to the page in which you can apply. Applications are also available in the Clerk's Office. Once you have applied, you will be contacted via email that your application has been received. At that point the Council will review applications and determine which applicants will be invited for an interview.

If you have any questions, please contact the Clerk's Office at 480-503-6871.
