Agricultural Service Board Calls for Members-at-Large

Wheatland County invites applications for “Members-At-Large” to the Agricultural Service Board (ASB).  The ASB is a special committee appointed by Wheatland County Council to address agricultural concerns in the municipality.  This is done through developing and evaluating agricultural policies and programs to meet the needs of Wheatland County. Applicants should be well versed in a wide variety of agricultural areas; reside in, or own property within, the boundaries of Wheatland County and be able to attend four board meetings per year, participate in other committees related to the ASB, and attend the Regional and Provincial ASB Conferences.

Membership appointments may be made by Wheatland County Council at the November 12, 2024, Regular Council Meeting for an approximate term of three years with eligibility for reappointment. Current membership of the board includes both Councilors and members at large with the exact makeup of the board moving forward to be determined.
