Advisory Committee
The Mid-Kaweah GSA Advisory Committee is a standing committee appointed by the agency’s Board of Directors. Members of the Advisory Committee apply to serve a three-year term, which is renewable by a board vote. Applicants must be residents or individuals associated with a business within the jurisdictional boundaries of the Mid-Kaweah GSA.
The Advisory Committee is an 11-member panel that provides decision making support to the agency’s Board of Directors via input to technical studies and to function as a stakeholder outreach forum to foster active public participation in the Mid-Kaweah GSA. To establish an Advisory Committee reflective of the community, the Board seeks to appoint a panel comprised of up to three members representing the agricultural community; up to three members representing governmental organizations operating within the GSA; up to three members representing environmental interests and/or disadvantaged communities; and the remainder appointed at-large.
Application deadline for three available seats is September 31, 2020. See the links below for additional details and to apply.
