As is the case each year, Borough President Scott Stringer is now opening the playing field for new blood in the Manhattan’s community board system. This time around, half of the 600 total seats are up for appointment come April 1, 2013.

If interested in applying for a community board seat, consider the following steps. Deadline for applicants is January 18:

Meetings rotate locations but stick to the same monthly times. Please see your individual Community Board section here and access your Community Board’s calendar for up-to-date information.

• Review the eligibility requirements for community board service.

• Download and complete the our community board application and include a copy of your resume or biography.
