Member sought for Trail of Coeur d'Alenes Commission

The Idaho Department of Parks and Recreation is seeking an individual to be a commissioner on the six-member Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes Trail Commission.

The purpose of the Trail Commission is to ensure that all aspects of the development, funding, management and operation of the rights of way and trail are coordinated across separate and joint management areas, consistent with implementation of the agreement between the state of Idaho, IDPR and the Coeur d'Alene Tribe.

The Trail Commission will meet as needed and at least twice annually.

Commission members must reside in the state of Idaho, be willing to actively participate in Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes activities and enter into a Memorandum of Understanding to serve for the term of appointment. If a member of an organization or club, the commission member must report to that organization or club on the activities and actions of the commission, and solicit input and suggestions to be brought to the full commission.

The at-large member will be approved by IDPR's board and will serve a term of two years. No commission at-large member may serve more than two consecutive terms.

Individuals interested in becoming an at-large member must complete an application and return it by May 1 to the Old Mission/Trail of the Coeur d'Alenes State Park Office in Cataldo or the IDPR North Region Service Center, 2885 Kathleen Ave., Suite 1, Coeur d'Alene.

Applications are available at the locations listed above and online at: http://bit.ly/1GVYyFY.
