Ancram Planning Board seeks Alternate Members
The Town of Ancram seeks applicants to serve on the Ancram Planning Board as alternate members.
The term of office is five years.
All board member training and other requirements apply to alternate members.
Candidates with an agricultural background will be given preference for appointment as an alternate member of the Planning Board.
Applicants with land use planning experience, familiarity with site plans, engineering and architectural drawings and scales, the construction industry, or the construction design profession, will also be given preference.
As an alternate, you will attend all Planning Board meetings, which are held on the first Thursday of each month, and you may participate in Planning Board deliberations, but may not vote unless you are designated to replace a regular Planning Board member because of conflicts of interest requiring their recusal.
As an alternate, you may be given preferential consideration for appointment to the Planning Board as a regular member in the event of Planning Board member resignations.
To be considered for an appointment as an alternate, please send your resume and an email outlining your background and experience in agriculture, land use planning and zoning to Ancram Town Supervisor Art Bassin at abassin@ancramny.org.
Applicants will be interviewed by the Planning Board, which will recommend candidates for appointment by the Ancram Town Board.
