City of North Bend release – Volunteer opportunities are now available for those eager to make a difference in the Coos Bay Estuary Management Plan. This is your chance to actively shape the future of our beautiful estuary and surrounding areas. In our dedication to community involvement and sustainable development, we’ve established two volunteer committees: 1. Citizen Advisory Committee; 2. Technical Advisory Committee. These committees will play crucial roles in guiding the implementation of the Coos Bay Estuary Management Plan. They’ll tackle key issues related to community development, balancing land use development and environmental conservation. We invite you to join us in this important endeavor. As a volunteer, you’ll collaborate with local officials, stakeholders, and fellow community members. Your input will help shape policies and initiatives that will define the future of our estuary. If you’re passionate about making a difference and interested in serving on either of these committees, we encourage you to fill out the applicable volunteer application form.
