The Portland Bureau of Development Services is seeking applications from design professionals and major facilities landowners interested in filling two vacancies on the Development Review Advisory Committee.
The 17-member citizen advisory group represents those with interests in the outcome of policies, budgets, regulations and procedures that affect the city of Portland development review process.
Vacancies exist following the departures of Keith Skille of GBD Architects and Dan Gilkison, a civil engineer with the Port of Portland, said Mark Fetters, a BDS senior management analyst. Both Skille and Gilkison decided to step down because of other time commitments, he said.
Fetters is accepting applications from people interested in serving a three-year term on the committee. The group generally meets on the third Thursday of each month from 8 to 9 a.m. at 1900 S.W. Fourth Ave.
More information about the committee and application procedures is available online at . Design professionals and facilities landowners interested in serving on the committee can contact Fetters at 503-823-1028 or [email protected].
BDS will accept applications until the positions are filled. The new committee members will be appointed by Commissioner Amanda Fritz and confirmed by Portland City Council.
