Doña Ana County seeks residents to serve on the Planning and Zoning Commission, a seven-member board of volunteers who review land-use and development matters during twice-a-month public hearings.
Three seats are open and available on the commission and will be filled by the Doña Ana County Board of Commissioners at their regular meeting on April 22. The Planning and Zoning Commission members are appointed for two-year staggered terms.
Planning and Zoning Commission meetings generally are held on the second and fourth Thursday of each month, from 9am to noon, in the Commission Chambers at the Doña Ana County Government Center, 845 N. Motel. Blvd.
Matters that historically have come before the commission include variance requests to land use requirements, special use permits designations, zone changes, subdivision reviews and approvals, appeals of staff decisions, reports to the Board of County Commissioners, and recommendations related to amendments or changes to the County’s comprehensive plan and the Unified Development Code.
To be considered for an open seat, please submit a letter of interest, a current resume and three letters of reference.
Applications will be accepted through 5pm Friday, April 4.
