OBCDC seeks applicants for board of directors
The Ocean Beach Community Development Corporation is currently seeking applicants for the organization’s board of directors.
According to Ann Kelsey, a member of the OBCDC board, interested parties are being sought to join the board and help push forward efforts with the Ocean Beach entryway enhancement and other projects.
The need for new membership stems from a number of members leaving the Ocean Beach area, according to Kelsey.
The board will be attempting to fill as many as four positions.
Although elections will be held before the end of the year to determine new board members, applications are due Oct. 15. Interested applicants will be asked to participate in the OBCDC’s regular meeting Oct. 16. Successful candidates will be announced Nov. 27.
Interested applicants are being urged to contact the board at [email protected].
