Asheboro seeks applicants for planning board members

ASHEBORO – The City of Asheboro is accepting applications to serve on the Asheboro Planning Board. Applicants should reside within the city limits of Asheboro or within the city’s extraterritorial planning jurisdiction.

Interested individuals are advised to submit a résumé and Interest Form for Service on Boards and Commissions, which can be found on the city’s website at www.asheboronc.gov or at City Hall. City Council will direct the appointment process for applicants seeking to serve as a representative of the city limits. Applications seeking to represent the ETPJ will be forwarded to the Randolph Board of County Commissioners for appointment.

The Planning Board reviews and comments on proposed amendments to the zoning ordinance and analyzes development proposals for regulatory consistency. The board also functions as the city’s Board of Adjustment.

This position is largely a volunteer role, although board members do receive a small monthly stipend.  Applicants must be able to attend meetings the first Monday night of each month in the Council Chamber at City Hall.

For information, contact community development division director Trevor Nuttall at (336) 626-1201 ext. 2323.
