The window is now open for members (homeowners) who would like to apply to run for a position on the 2027-2028 Kern City Board of Directors.
There are three seats open. Applications are available in the office, and the last day to turn one into the office will be Monday, Aug. 10, by noon.
“This is a wonderful opportunity for established members — those who have lived here at least a year — to participate more in our community,” said Board President Joe Newton.
“Our board really needs people who are willing to spend time working on projects. We keep costs down when directors help out so we really appreciate those who will do that. Also, directors need to be team players who consider all sides and work for solutions that benefit the community.”
Qualifications include:
- You must have owned your Kern City home for at least one year.
- You must be current in your assessment payments.
- Applicants cannot have a criminal record that can affect KCCA’s fidelity
bond coverage.
- Two members from the same residence cannot serve at the same time.
