Rob’s Take: Several years ago, we made a concerted effort to encourage our members to volunteer to serve on numerous advisory boards and commissions throughout the region. I’m pleased to say we have had enormous success in gaining their participation, but we still have much more to do to reach the level of engagement that will help optimize outcomes. We published the full list of Mecklenburg County openings above just so you are aware of the scope of opportunities available. For our industry, these are the boards that are most relevant:

• Board of Equalization and Review
• Park and Recreation Commission
• Groundwater Advisory Committee
• Building Development Commission
• Air Quality Commission

There are opportunities to serve in other advisory roles throughout the region. It’s all available on our REBIC website so please consider sharing your expertise and encouraging others to do the same
