The Village of Garden City depends upon its residents to function and perform many valuable services. It has several openings on boards and commissions that it needs residents' help filling. Please visit the village's website to review the nature of each board or commission. Selections will be made in Spring 2019.

The four Property Owners' Associations help the village identify candidates and positions are allocated among residents from the four sections of the village, with additional positions at large. If you are interested, please follow this procedure:

  • Contact your POA official for your section of the Village or contact us directly via Village Clerk Karen Altman at kaltman@gardencityny.net.
  • Submit a resume or similar information describing your interest and qualifications for a particular Board or Commission.
  • Provide the information by March 15.

Below is a list of the various boards and commissions that have members with expiring terms in
April 2019 and December 2019. Existing members are, of course, welcome to submit their names for continued service.
