Volusia County
Citizen Advisory Boards

Citizen participation is vital to a democratic government. The County of Volusia recognizes the unique contributions made by volunteers and encourages involvement and interest in the policy-making process through service as an advisory board member.

Definition: A county advisory board is created by ordinance, resolution or Florida statutes to provide advice and recommendations to the Volusia County Council on diverse matters of public concern.

Application for appointment: Appointment information forms are available in the County Manager's Office. Any person interested in serving on a board must complete and file this form with the County Manager's Office.

Requirements for board members: Board members should have the expertise necessary to accomplish the board's objectives, a reputation for integrity and community service and an interest or experience in the area of board service desired. Many boards require financial disclosure under Florida law. If appointed to one of these boards, Section 112.3945, Florida Statutes, requires you file a Form 1, Statement of Financial Interest, with the supervisor of elections in the county of your permanent residence within 30 days of your appointment.

Appointment: All appointment information forms are reviewed by the County Manager's Office. References may be contacted. Recommendations are forwarded to the Volusia County Council for approval.
