Anyone interested in joining Enumclaw government now has the opportunity, as applications are being sought for a vacancy on the seven-member City Council.
All seats are “at large,” meaning there are no council districts. Members of the council simply have to reside inside the city limits.
The city asks that candidates be able to serve through November 2015. Beyond that, applicants must affirm that they meet all requirements as spelled out by state government; the Revised Code of Washington dictates that candidates must be registered voters and have lived in the city for at least one year.
Those wishing to be considered must submit a one-page letter of interest, along with a resumé, to City Clerk Meredith Shirey.
Application materials may be submitted via email to mshirey@ci.enumclaw.wa.us or by mail to: City of Enumclaw, 1339 Griffin Ave, Enumclaw, Wash. 98022, attn: City Clerk.
Applications must be received by the end of the business day on Monday, Feb. 10.
