Vancouver, WA - The Clark County Board of Commissioners is seeking an individual to fill an unexpired term through December 2011 on the Clark County Railroad Advisory Board. The County owns a 33-mile short-line railroad that runs from Vancouver to Chelatchie Prairie. The line is commonly known as the Lewis and Clark Railroad or the Chelatchie Prairie Railroad.
The 15-member board advises the commissioners on how to achieve the maximum long-term return to the County from its investment in the railroad. Input from the advisory board will help develop key policy facets of the railroad operations. “The railroad is an important part of our long-term vision to bring jobs to Clark County,” said Board Chair Marc Boldt.
Applicants should have the following qualifications:
· Knowledge of railroad and transportation issues in Clark County
· Willingness to represent a broad spectrum of community interests
· Commitment to prepare for and attend monthly meetings (second Monday of each month from 4 to 6 p.m.).
Anyone interested in serving should submit a letter of interest and a resume by August 21 to Jennifer Clark in the commissioners’ office, P.O. Box 5000, Vancouver, WA 98666-5000. Commissioners will also accept applications by fax at
(360) 397-6058, or by e-mail to jennifer.clark@clark.wa.gov.
