The Burrillville Town Council has established more than a dozen boards, commissions and committees comprised of resident volunteers. Residents who serve on these boards and commissions generally cite two reasons for their involvement: service to their communtiy and the opportunity to experience first-hand the workings of their local government. Among the boards and commissions created by the town council are:
Board of Assessment Review
Budget Board
Conservation Commission
Housing Authority
Juvenile Hearing Board
Narcotics Guidance Council
Planning Board
Recreation Commission
Redevelopment Agency
Sewer Commission
Zoning Board
Current vacancies on boards and commissions are advertised and posted on the Town website. Applications are reviewed by the Screening Subcommittee, interviews are conducted and the Subcommittee submits its recommendation to the full Town Council. Subsequently, the Town Council appoints members of the Boards and Commissions.

Applications are always encouraged and are kept on file for a year. When a vacancy occurs on any board, the applications are reviewed and interviews conducted to create the best possible match between resident and board.
