EAST WINDSOR – East Windsor Township is seeking high school students to serve as student representatives to township boards and commissions.
The Township Council has formally established the non-voting position of student representative to many advisory boards and commissions. The board and commissions included in the program are: Commission on Aging, Clean Communities Committee, Cultural and Heritage Commission, Economic Development Commission, Environmental Commission, Health Advisory Committee, Recreation Commission, and Transportation Advisory Committee. Generally, these bodies meet on a monthly basis.
According to Mayor Janice Mironov, "the Township Council believes that student participation can inject a fresh outlook into the governmental process. We are hopeful that by offering this type of interaction our younger citizens will be stimulated to have a greater interest in and understanding of the role of local government."
High school students who wish to be considered should submit a letter indicating their area of interest and reasons or related background, to Mayor Janice Mironov and members of the Township Council, East Windsor Municipal Building, 16 Lanning Boulevard, East Windsor, N.J. 08520
