The City of Tampa is looking to fill eleven positions on the newly established Natural Resources Advisory Committee (NRAC).

The roles include certified arborist, engineer, builder, and others. Members must be residents of Tampa and will provide guidance throughout the plan's process.
Applicants must meet specific qualifications for their designated role, embody community values regarding natural resource conservation, represent stakeholder interests objectively, and have no conflicts that would interfere with their participation on the committee.

The NRAC is expected to hold at least two meetings annually. Additional meetings may occur depending on updates to the plan and ongoing needs for guidance during implementation and monitoring phases.
