Mayor Remy Drabkin is seeking applications from residents who would like to join the McMinnville Water and Light Commission. The new commissioner will serve a 4-year term beginning Jan. 1, 2025.
Since 1905, McMinnville Water and Light has been governed under the City Charter by a five-member commission, which is led by the mayor who is an ex-officio member. MW&L commissioners serve a vital role by representing the community to McMinnville Water and Light and by representing MW&L to the community. Board members learn about the inner workings of MW&L and assure the success of the utility by approving plans that align with its mission, vision, policies and strategic goals.
