LFP seeks citizens to serve on the Civil Service Commission

The City of Lake Forest Park is seeking citizen volunteers to serve on the Civil Service Commission. This Commission is responsible for establishing eligibility lists for hiring, reviewing candidate applications, and making hiring recommendations for the Police Department.

The Civil Service Commission has at total of three members and is supported by the Civil Service Secretary. Meetings are held as needed throughout the year. 

An ideal citizen volunteer for the Civil Service Commission would be someone who had previous experience in public safety or an interest in the high quality of our community’s police department.

Commissions play an important role in city government. Commissioners represent the views, needs and values of the community. If you are interested in serving on the City’s Civil Service Commission, contact Mayor Mary Jane Goss at 206-368-5440.

Learn more about the City’s Civil Service Commission under the heading “City Hall” on the City’s website.
