New vacancy opens up on Charlottesville Planning Commission

Two terms on the seven-member Charlottesville Planning Commission expire on August 31, but now a third position is also up for grabs. 

“Changes and opportunities in my personal and professional life have me leaving Charlottesville in early July and give up my seat,” said Commissioner Liz Russell, who was appointed in 2020. 

Last summer, the City Council reconstituted the Planning Commission and Russell’s term now expires at the end of August 2024. 

Russell’s last meeting will be next Tuesday, June 13. 

The terms of Hosea Mitchell and Rory Stolzenberg are the terms expiring this August and both are eligible for reappointment. Applications for those two seats have already closed with a selection to be made by Council at some point.

To apply for the new vacancy, visit the city’s website. The position closes on July 7.

Other vacancies exist including the Historic Resources Committee, the Charlottesville Affordable Housing Fund Committee, and the Piedmont Family YMCA Board of Directors.  Take a full look at the list. Will you apply?
