Clark County is accepting applications to fill a vacancy on the seven-member Parks Advisory Board for a term that begins April 1.

Board members serve three-year terms. Upon expiration of a term, a member can apply again. There is no limit on how many terms a member can serve.

The Parks Advisory Board advises the Clark County Council and county staff on parks planning, acquisition, development and related issues. Applicants must be residents of Clark County. The county is looking for people who can bring ethnic, cultural, and geographic diversity to the group. A board member located in north Clark County is preferred to assist with geographic diversity.
