Following a request from the Aurora City Council, the city of Aurora has reopened the application window to fill a vacancy on its Planning and Zoning Commission.

The deadline to apply to be considered for the partial-term vacancy is March 11, 2024. The term of the vacancy ends Dec. 31, 2024.

The commission provides recommendations to the Aurora City Council on zoning and a wide range of planning- and development-related issues. Members also review site plans and use approvals unless appealed to the City Council.

Members must be registered electors and residents of Aurora for at least one year immediately preceding the date of their appointment. No member shall hold paid office or position in the city administration. If any member ceases to be an Aurora resident, membership will terminate immediately.

To apply for the commission, call the City Clerk’s Office at 303.739.7094 or visit AuroraGov.org/Boards. The Aurora City Council will interview selected applicants at a future study session.

The commission usually meets on the second and fourth Wednesday of each month at 6 p.m. The term of service is three years.
