The City of Hendersonville has openings on various advisory boards, commissions, and committees. Have you ever wanted to make a difference? Have you wondered, “Can the City benefit from my experience and knowledge?” Do you want to have a voice in the City’s growth and future? Do you want to be a part of the body that is responsible for contributing to decisions regarding policy and service? If you have answered yes to any of these questions, then it is time to take that initial step forward and put your perspective, leadership, and knowledge to task by serving on one of the 16 boards, commissions, and committees that advise the Mayor and City Council on an array of issues. The city often has advisory boards which consist of both City and County residents. Some of these boards require that persons reside in the county (but within the City’s ETJ) and some appointments are made through the County or other entity.
