City commission vacancies abound
The city of Saratoga has eight vacancies on its advisory commissions.
Four members of the heritage preservation commission will be leaving their seats when their four-year terms end in April. The heritage preservation commission advises the planning commission on issues relating to historically significant buildings in the city. The commission also recommends designations of historic landmarks, roads or districts to the city.
Three members of the public safety commission will also be leaving their seats in April. The commission oversees crime, fire, traffic and other safety issues in the city.
One seat is also available on the finance commission. That commission assists the city council in budgeting decisions and annual audits.
