Resident Boards & Commissions

Many residents of the City of Decatur serve on volunteer boards, commissions, and task forces. These volunteer groups are appointed by the City Commission and staffed by City of Decatur employees. If you are a Decatur resident interested in serving on a board or commission, we invite you to submit a Statement of Interest form. The City Commission conducts interviews on a rolling basis for open positions before their meetings on the first or third Monday of the month.

To apply, fax the completed Statement of Interest form to 678-553-6518 or mail it to P.O. Box 220 Decatur, GA 30031. Please direct it to the attention of "Peggy Merriss, City Manager."
