The Granville County Board of Commissioners is seeking qualified applicants to fill roles on several citizen advisory boards and committees. Most positions will be filled by citizens who reside in the district listed, but final appointment decisions are at the discretion of the Board of Commissioners. Additionally, some positions must be filled by residents that reside within the Extra-Territorial Jurisdiction of a municipality (ETJ), which is roughly a one-mile radius outside of the municipal limits. These appointees serve as county representatives on those municipal advisory boards.
Applications are available on the Granville County website at this link. Completed applications should be returned to Karen Evans, Clerk to the Board of Commissioners, by email at karen.evans@granvillecounty.org, or hand delivered in person to the County Administration Office located at 104 Belle Street in Oxford, or by mail to PO Box 906 Oxford, NC 27565 to the attention of Karen Evans.
To verify your district, please visit the NC State Board of Elections website.
Look for the district number beside “County Commissioner” under “your jurisdictions.” If you need additional assistance determining your district, contact the Granville County Addressing and GIS Mapping Coordinator at 919-692-1278.
