Below is a listing of current Boards and Committees looking to fill a vacancy.


Affordable Housing Committee – (9 members)
An advisory group responsible for gathering, generating and prioritizing ideas and plans which will help to increase the availability of affordable housing in the Town, as well as to assess the quality and quantity of current affordable housing, and to bring these ideas and information forward in a advisory manner to the Selectboard, Planning Commission, Development Review Board and Town staff. This is a nine member committee.

Agency Request Review Committee – (7 members)
An advisory group responsible for evaluating and prioritizing requests for funding appropriations from social service agencies that serve the residents of our community, and for making a funding recommendation to the Selectboard to be included in the annual budget. The task of the Agency Request Review Committee would be to evaluate the information submitted by social service agencies, considering factors such as the number of Hinesburg residents served, the type of service and the percentage of agency income that is used for program costs, to prioritize and quantify appropriations in order to maximize the value residents receive from the tax dollars appropriated. Due to the annual fluctuation in workload, the Committee does not have a regular schedule for meetings. However, the majority of the Committee’s work is completed between September and December annually.

Conservation Commission – (9 members)
The Hinesburg Conservation Commission operates as an advisory board to the local Development Review Board, Planning Commission, and Select Board. The Conservation Commission is also responsible for the management of Geprags Community Park and recommending expenditures from the Land Conservation Fund for local projects.

Lake Iroquois Recreation District Representative – (4 members)
The four municipalities that border Lake Iroquois make up the district (Hinesburg, Williston, St. George and Richmond), with a Board of Commissioners consisting of one representative from each member municipality. The district exists for the purpose of owning, leasing, developing, maintaining and managing its property located on Lake Iroquois and vicinity, for public park, conservation and recreational purposes to serve its member communities. The District Commission normally meets the first Monday of each month at the Williston Town Office.

Planning Commission – (9 members)
The Commission works on updating the Town Plan, Zoning Bylaws, Subdivision Regulations and other projects related to land-use planning in the Town. The Planning Commission is charged with bringing a long-term perspective to day-to-day decision-making. The Commission meets the second and fourth Wednesday of each month.
