County Board Of Appeals Seeks Applicants For New Appointee
The Montgomery County Council is accepting applicants to serve on its Board of Appeals, the five-member quasi-judicial panel which settles land zoning and development disputes. The open position can be filled by a Democrat, Republican or a voter not affiliated with any political party.
Current board member Caryn Hines’ term expires in September, creating an opportunity for a new appointee. While members cannot serve more than two full terms, Hines, a Democrat, was appointed to the board in February 2021 for a partial term. According to the county’s press release, Hines is eligible to serve a new full term and plans on applying for reappointment. However, the county council is still seeking out fresh applicants for the board.
