Ellis County
The Ellis County Board of Commissioners are requesting citizen interest in being apart of the new Ellis County Library Board.
To be eligible for the appointment, the person must live within the new taxing district of the Ellis County Library, which is anyone who lives in Ellis County, but not within the city limits of Hays or Ellis.
Initial appointment terms will vary, but appointments will have four-year terms after the initial appointment.
This is an exciting time for the new board. Some examples of the initial work needing done for the new board are creating bylaws, board positions, meeting dates, times, and locations, budget, contractual work, and working with local public libraries.
For anyone interested in serving on this board, please feel free to contact an Ellis County commissioner or the county administrator to gather more information.
To be considered for the appointment, a Citizen Interest form must be filled out and turned in. It can be found on the Ellis County Clerks webpage at https://www.ellisco.net/494/Citizen-Interest---Volunteer.
Forms need to be returned no later than October 1, 2024.
