Boards and Commissions

Boards, commissions, authorities, and committees serve as vital channels for citizen engagement, fostering participation and providing valuable perspectives, expertise, and collaborative strategies to address the multifaceted needs and interests of the community. These volunteer entities are comprised of both local entities dedicated to serving Buena Vista and regional entities committed to advancing the Rockbridge area and/or Shenandoah Valley. These diverse groups collaborate to support the growth and advancement of the community in various capacities.
