COSTA MESA : Members Sought for 2 City Commissions
The city is looking for residents to fill openings on its Planning and Transportation commissions.

Each member serves a four-year term and is paid $400 a month. The Planning Commission meets on the second and fourth Mondays of each month and holds study sessions on intervening Mondays.
The duties of the five-member Transportation Commission are to establish and review transportation policies, including traffic-control devices, traffic ordinances, improvement to the city’s transportation systems and traffic laws, and to make recommendations to the City Council on these issues.
Each member serves a four-year term and is paid $300 a month. The Transportation Commission meets on the first and third Wednesdays of each month.
Residents interested in applying for either commission should submit a resume and an explanation, not to exceed one page, of their philosophy concerning either planning or transportation.
The application deadline is Feb. 8.
