The City is seeking applicants interested in government and educational access television and cable television franchising for one full-term position on the City/County Telecommunications Commission (TCC). Applications must be submitted by Friday, Nov. 22.

The TCC advises the Vancouver City Council and the Clark County Council on telecommunications and cable television matters. The commission makes reports, monitors compliance with the City and County cable franchise agreements, and establishes rules and regulations regarding cable television and associated telecommunications issues. Four members are appointed by the Vancouver City Council and four by the Clark County Council.

This recruitment is for one full-term position beginning Dec. 31, 2024, and ending Dec. 21, 2028. Per Vancouver City Council policy, all incumbents who wish to reapply for their positions will be re-interviewed along with any qualifying applicants. Commissioners serve three-year terms and participate in two meetings a year. Applicants must live in the City limits and participate in a phone or online interview with Mayor Anne McEnerny-Ogle.
