Apply to Serve on a City Board or Commission

Applications are being accepted from Cedar Rapids residents for current and upcoming vacancies on many City of Cedar Rapids boards, commissions and advisory committees. These advisory groups can be valuable community assets and effective partners with the Mayor, City Council and City staff in guiding the future of our community.

The City of Cedar Rapids is committed to gender balance on all boards, commissions and advisory committees, and strives to receive diverse input from the community to guide decisions. Representation from individuals with varied backgrounds and experiences is critical in creating a community that serves all. We encourage individuals who reflect our community’s diverse backgrounds to apply.
