Would you like to serve on a board or commission?
The Mayor is responsible for appointing City of Huron residents to the various boards and commissions that report to the City Council.  Many residents have volunteered to serve their community by taking a seat on the Personnel Appeals Board, Planning Commission, Huron Joint Recreation District, and many others.  If you are interested in learning more about how you can serve in one of these very important capacities, please contact Mayor Shearer via Clerk of Council at (419) 433-5000
