Oak Ridge City Council will host a drop-in advisory board information session this month, and candidates interested in applying for a city board or commission are encouraged to attend.
The information session is scheduled between 5 and 7 p.m. on January 19 in the Social Room at the Oak Ridge Civic Center.
“The session is an opportunity for those who have applied or are interested in applying to meet with council members, introduce themselves, and ask any questions they have,” a press release said. “Last year, there were 79 applicants for city boards and/or commissions, which is nearly 20 more than the previous year. We hope that offering more chances to get questions answered encourages even more residents to apply and be selected for advisory board service this year.”
Light refreshments will be served, the press release said.
Due to the recent spike in COVID-19 cases and rapid spread of the Omicron variant, attendees are strongly encouraged to wear face masks or coverings. Those showing signs or symptoms of the virus should not attend.

More information will be added as it becomes available.
