Edmonds: Design board spots open
Two volunteers are needed to fill a pair of open positions on the city’s Architectural Design Board. The board makes decisions about proposed multi-family and commercial developments regarding site, landscape and building design. Meetings are held at 7 p.m. on the first Wednesday of each month.
One open position requires a background in architecture while the other needs only to be an Edmonds resident. The architect does not need to live in the city.
Applications can be picked up at Edmonds City Hall, 121 Fifth Ave. N., or by calling the mayor’s office at 425-771-0247. Applications will be accepted until the positions are filled.
