The Alaska Community Forest Council is looking for five seats to be filled in 2014 and will be accepting applications through Tuesday, April 29.
The council is an advisory board to the Division of Forestry and promotes the management of trees and forests within communities to maximize economic and social benefits they provide.
Seats are open in the following categories: arborist, small community service, industry and business, and two members at large seats.
Council members are asked to attend all-day meetings four times a year, usually in Anchorage, must attend orientation before their first meeting and are provided educational opportunities and hands on training.
For more information about the council and applying visit the Department of Forestry’s website.
