Clark County is seeking applicants to fill three open positions on the nine-member Clark Communities Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee. Committee members serve four-year terms. Terms for the open seats begin Jan. 1, 2024, and end Dec. 31, 2026.

The committee advises the county and participating city and state government staff on matters relating to bicycle and pedestrian infrastructure planning and implementation of the county’s bicycle and pedestrian master plan. The committee reviews proposed road construction and private development projects to identify ways to ensure safe access for all pedestrians, including those with disabilities, and cyclists.

Applicants must be residents living anywhere in Clark County. People with experience bicycling, walking, traveling by public transit, or other modes of active transportation are encouraged to apply.

The committee meets 6-8 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of each month and meetings are currently held virtually. In addition to regular meetings, subcommittees may meet as work groups and could require spending additional time outside of the regular meeting times. 

To apply, interested residents should submit a letter of interest to Michelle Pfenning, County Manager’s Office, P.O. Box 5000, Vancouver, WA 98666-5000, or michelle.pfenning@clark.wa.gov.

Applications must be submitted by 5 p.m. Friday, Nov. 3, 2023.
