Residents of southwest Plymouth, take note: there's an opportunity knocking on your door. The City of Plymouth is on the hunt for a new member to join the Plymouth Housing and Redevelopment Authority (HRA), but only if you reside in Ward 2. The vacant seat is calling for civic-minded individuals who are eager to contribute to the housing and community development programs in Plymouth. The deadline to throw your hat in the ring is fast approaching; applications need to be in by April 16, 4:30 p.m. sharp, so don't be late to the party.
If you're scratching your head wondering which Ward you call home, the City's got you covered. They've made a handy Ward Map available in PDF form to clear up any confusion. For those who fancy a more detailed look into the role before committing, the HRA application is just a click away.
The workings of the HRA aren't a secret phenomenon; they meet every fourth Thursday of the month at 7 p.m., making decisions and steering the helm of housing and redevelopment matters in Plymouth. Volunteering for this board means you'd be both an advisor to the Plymouth City Council and dipping your toes in the wider pool of federal, state, and local housing programs—important stuff that could reshape your community.
So, if you're a resident with ideas bubbling up and a willingness to contribute to the community, you might just be the one Plymouth is looking for. Need more info before making the decision? Dial up 763-509-5000 for the lowdown on the commission and the application process. Just remember: a clear April 16th deadline beckons, so chop-chop, interested parties should apply!
