Completed applications should be mailed or delivered in-person to Village of Skokie, Office of the Mayor, 5127 Oakton St., Skokie, IL 60077, or emailed to vicky.varga@skokie.org. Applicants are encouraged to note their lived or professional experience and to attach a resume with their application.
All subcommittee members will be selected by the Mayor and affirmed by the Village Board of Trustees.
