Volunteers invited to apply year-round
Applications for city volunteer boards and commissions can now be submitted at any time, whether or not there are current vacancies.
All applications will be kept on file for two years, and the applicant will be notified in the event that a vacancy occurs. The application will then be forwarded to the Board of Directors for consideration.
Those interested can apply by filling out an online application, which can be found at littlerock.gov/city-administration/city-boards-and-commissions/.
