Jamestown Seeks Applicant for Forestry Committee Seat, 3-Year Term to April 2029

The city of Jamestown is accepting applications to fill one open seat on the Forestry Committee, a three-year term that runs to April 2029, and completed forms must be returned by March 20, 2026. The Jamestown Sun published the vacancy notice Feb. 22, 2026, and a NewsDakota listing datelined "JAMESTOWN, N.D." repeats the opening and the March 20, 2026 return deadline.

Anyone interested must complete an "Application for Appointment." The notice directs applicants to obtain the form in person at City Hall, 102 3rd Ave. SE, Jamestown; by telephone at 701-252-5900; or online via the city’s Committees page. The NewsDakota item reproduces the same application instruction and gives the return-by date explicitly as March 20, 2026.

The application return instructions are printed in full in the notices: "The application should be returned by March 20, 2026 to: City of Jamestown, Attn: Appointments, 102 3rd Ave. SE, Jamestown, ND 58401-4205." That address block appears verbatim in both the Jamestown Sun capture and the NewsDakota listing and is the only return address provided in the materials.

The published notices do not name an appointments coordinator or City Clerk contact beyond the "Attn: Appointments" line, and they do not describe Forestry Committee duties, meeting schedule, time commitment, eligibility criteria, or whether the position is paid or volunteer. The absence of a named contact and of committee role details means prospective applicants will need to confirm procedural and substantive expectations before applying.

A separate source included in the materials, labeled Jamestownny, contains extended descriptions of multiple municipal boards and refers to Chautauqua County and meeting schedules; those Jamestownny passages differ from the Jamestown, N.D., dateline in NewsDakota and should be verified with City Hall to determine whether they apply to this vacancy.

City Hall can confirm outstanding items and provide the "Application for Appointment" form in person at 102 3rd Ave. SE or by phone at 701-252-5900. With the March 20, 2026 deadline published in the notices, applicants who want to be considered for the three-year Forestry Committee term to April 2029 should submit the completed form to City of Jamestown, Attn: Appointments, 102 3rd Ave. SE, Jamestown, ND 58401-4205 by that date.
