Citizen Boards and Commissions

Welcome to the City of Rapid City' citizen board site! The City of Rapid City has established a variety of boards, committees and commissions that provide you an opportunity to use your unique talents and abilities to benefit our community. Your service on a commission or board will allow you to provide important input on policies that shape our Government and our City. We have more than 30 boards, committees and commissions that advise the Mayor and City Council on a variety of issues. In most cases, appointments are recommended by the Mayor and confirmed by the Rapid City Common Council. 

Please take a moment to browse through the list. You may apply to a board, committee or commission by clicking on the Citizen Interest Application link on the right hand side of the screen or by downloading a PDF version also found on the right hand side of the screen. Your application will be retained on file for three years, and will be considered each time there is a vacancy on the boards or commissions you have indicated interest on your application.

The City of Rapid City does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, religion, sex, sexual orientation, national origin, creed, pregnancy, age, or disability in the selection of those chosen to serve on a City Board or Committee. Women and minorities are encouraged to apply.

There are many great things happening in Rapid City! Much of the credit is due to people just like you who are willing to volunteer their time and talents for the good of our community.

Thank you for your consideration!
