Fairview Park Seeks Tree Volunteer; Notice Lacks Key Details | The Locally Times
The city seeks a tree committee volunteer by Feb. 27, but its public notice lacks application details and contains conflicting dates.
## Application Details for Tree Committee Vacancy The City of Fairview Park is accepting applications for a volunteer appointment to its Shade Tree Advisory Committee (STAC). According to a public notice, the deadline for submissions is 4:00 p.m. on February 27, 2026, for a term ending December 31, 2028. The notice states the STAC is charged with promoting and encouraging tree planting throughout the city. The committee meets on the second Thursday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the Dunson Room at City Hall. Interested residents must submit a letter of interest and a completed application to the Clerk of Council. Submissions can be sent by email to clerkofcouncil@fairviewpark.org or mailed to the Fairview Park City Council at 20777 Lorain Road. ## Public Notice Lacks Key Information While the city’s announcement provides submission instructions, it does not specify where residents can obtain the official application form. The notice also fails to outline any preferred qualifications, professional background, or specific experience the city seeks for the role. Furthermore, the public record does not detail the circumstances of the vacancy, the current number of members on the STAC, the total number of seats, or whether the appointment is for a partial or full term. ## City Notice Contains Conflicting Dates The official notice on the city’s website contains conflicting dates. However, text within the body of the notice states it was posted on February 12, 2026. The December 31, 2028, date in the document’s title matches the listed end of the appointee’s term.
