Service Commitment
Service commitment may vary based upon needs, expectations and policy goals. However, most committee members can expect to work approximately 10-15 hours per month. Terms for the appointments to the committees listed above are one year unless otherwise noted and there are no term limits.
Some advisory committees have a need for specialized skills, but most people will find a committee that is a great fit for their knowledge base. Public members of advisory committees may not have regular, ongoing experience in a specific topic, but have a general interest in an advisory committee's work area. Serving on an advisory committee is a wonderful opportunity to learn more about an area of interest and contribute a fresh and unique perspective.
Appointment Process
Applications are due by 4:30 pm on Friday, Nov. 21, 2025. Following submission, applicants will receive an email confirming receipt of the application and describing the general process for appointment.
Once a decision is made, all applicants will be emailed and notified of their status. Appointments for open positions will be made at the January 2, 2026 meeting of the Minneapolis Park and Recreation Board.
