Some departments within the town are supported by a committee, a board, a commission, or an advisory group. The members of these groups are typically staff of the organization they serve, members of the Kentville Town Council, and sometimes, members of the public.  Council and volunteer membership on committees, commissions, and boards is reviewed each year. If you’re interested in joining a committee and helping Kentville grow and thrive, contact the chair of the board or committee you are interested in!  To learn more about these groups, please reach out to Jennifer West or one of the elected members who sits on the board or committee.  

Not all committees have vacancies at this time.  All applications will be kept on file for when a space becomes available for consideration.  Applications are considered by each committee and are sent to Council as a recommendation.  Council appoints citizen members to committees, board and commissions.

Most Kentville Committees are open to the public to attend.  If you wish to attend in the audience of a meeting, please reach out to Jennifer West or reach out directly to the chair of the committee.
