Historic Preservation Board seeks applicants

The Volusia County Historic Preservation Board is looking for two qualified citizens to fill vacancies on the board, which advises the Volusia County Council on matters related to historic preservation policy, including use, management and maintenance of county-owned historic resources.

To be considered for appointment, applicants must live in Volusia County and have a background in architecture, history, architectural history, archaeology, anthropology, cultural geography, planning or other related disciplines; or have demonstrated special interest, experience or knowledge in history, archaeology, architecture or related disciplines.

New members will be appointed by County Council District 1 representative Andy Kelly and County Council District 5 representative Patricia Northey, but it is not necessary to live in those districts to be appointed.

Board members serve two-year terms and may be reappointed for additional terms. Meetings generally are scheduled at 3:30 p.m. on the fourth Tuesday of January, March, May, July, September and November unless additional special meetings are called, as needed, by the chair.

Applications and detailed instructions are available at www.volusia.org/countycouncil/advisory.pdf or by calling (386) 736-5920, ext. 2398. Residents are encouraged to submit their applications by Nov. 30.

For more information, please contact Historic Preservation Officer Julie Adams Scofield at (386) 736-5953, ext. 2008, or jscofield@co.volusia.fl.us.
