Palm Beach looking for volunteer board members

David Rogers at the Shiny Sheet has this story today about the Palm Beach Architectural Commission and the Landmarks Preservation Commission. They are in need of new board members and the deadline for applications is February 27th. If you are interested or want more information visit www.townofpalmbeach.com or contact the town clerk (838-5416). From the article:

The town is accepting applications for positions on the Architectural Commission and the Landmarks Preservation Commission. Architectural Commission seats now held by vice chairwoman Ann Vanneck and architect-member Richard Sammons expire in March, as do the landmarks seats held by that board’s chairman, William Cooley, and architect Jacqueline Albarran, who holds the nonresident expert position.

The architectural board reviews and approves changes to existing structures and approves new construction projects. The board has seven regular members and three alternates.

This applies to Town of Palm Beach residents only, unless you are considered an expert and can qualify for the "nonresident" position.
