Garland Youth Council Accepting Applications
go to Youth Council web page
 

The Garland City Council wants to hear from the city’s youth and invites young people to apply to serve on the Garland Youth Council. The Youth Council’s mission is to provide a forum, which educates Garland’s youth to the various workings of City business, and allows youth to voice ideas and concerns.
 
Garland residents who will be in grades 9-12 during the 2010-11 school year are eligible to apply. Each applicant should submit a completed GYC application and two letters of reference by May 14, 2010 to Dorothy White, Public & Media Affairs Manager, 200 N Fifth Street, Garland, TX 75040. 
 
Applicants should plan to attend at least one Youth Council meeting. Regular meetings are set for the first Tuesday of each month, with committee meetings on the third Tuesday of each month. The GYC meets at Granger Recreation Center, 1310 W. Avenue F. The Mayor and each of Garland’s eight City Council members will select two applicants to serve a one-year term. 
 
Applications and meeting agendas are available at Garland City Hall, 200 N. Fifth Street, in the City Secretary’s office and www.garlandyouthcouncil.org.   For additional information, contact Dorothy White at 972-205-2879 or dwhite@ci.garland.tx.us.
