The Queen Anne Community Council will elect new members to the Board of Trustees on Sept. 18, and we are inviting anyone who’s interested and eligible to submit a letter of interest in running (you are eligible if you live or work in Queen Anne).
We’re a volunteer, non-profit organization of residents and business owners whose primary purpose is to advocate for the betterment of the Queen Anne community. The Board of Trustees serves as the steward of these efforts through active engagement with the community, and sharing information with the community, city officials, and other organizations. If you want to make Queen Anne an even better community for everyone, consider running for election in September.
We ask that you make a commitment to participate in once-a-month meetings (typically, the first Wednesday of the month, @ 7pm, held virtually (at the moment)) and support at least one committee or project. We have an increasingly active organization, and there are numerous ongoing community projects. You can learn more by visiting our website or talking to any of our current board members - email us at queenannecc@gmail.com to learn more. We will also have a table at the Queen Anne Farmer's Market on Sept. 5 if you want to stop by.
To become a candidate, send a short statement describing yourself and why you’d like to serve on the board to queenannecc@gmail.com no later than Sept. 6. Please share the areas of interest you are especially passionate about. These submissions will be publicized prior to the actual election. Everyone who applies and is eligible will be on the ballot at our Sept. 18 election.
