Town of Exeter Board and Committee Vacancies
Joining a board, committee or commission is a great way to learn about our hometown, volunteer your time and talents, and meet Exeter neighbors.
Watch our video playlist to learn more about the various boards, committees, and commissions in Exeter.
To learn more about each of the boards, committees and commissions, please see the files listed below or contact the Town Manager's office (773-6102 or pmcelroy@exeternh.gov).
NOTE: Alternate members become voting members only when substituting for a voting member who is not in attendance. Filling an alternate member position is a great way to get acclimated to a board, committee or commission.
