Community Development Boards and Commissions

Community Development staff supports the Commissions and Advisory Boards listed below.

Citizen participation on City of Corvallis Boards and Commissions serves two important purposes:

1. Citizens are directly involved in their local government and can positively impact the future of their community.
2. The City Council receives timely input and information regarding issues and potential impacts on citizens.

The various Boards and Commissions serve in an advisory capacity to the City Council within their respective areas of municipal policy. Members are unpaid volunteers who devote countless hours of their time to these community activities. Anyone living in Corvallis, employed or self-employed full-time in Corvallis, or residing within Corvallis' Urban Growth Boundary (UGB) may serve on these Boards and Commissions with the exception of the Planning Commission and Historic Preservation Commission. Typically, each term of office runs for three years; no individual member may serve more than three consecutive terms or nine years.
