The position will serve the remainder of 2024, which includes a scheduled meeting in November. Currently, the PRSA Board meets six (6) times a year with meetings occurring in January, March, May, July, September, and November. The Board will review submissions at the next Board meeting on Thursday, September 12, 2024. This position will be up for renewal by the Board in January 2025 for a four-year term ending December 2028.
Interested parties who meet the qualifications are invited to submit a letter of interest via email, mail, or in person by 4:00 p.m. on September 9, 2024. Letters of interest shall be submitted to:
