You can apply but you have to live in the rlght district. Also you need to find out the term of the appointment and have time to serve. I found out it required a lot of your time when I looked at that once upon a time.

I know that the Mayor of Coon Rapids was recommended by the city council last month for the seat up here. She abstained (actually, wasn't present) from the vote, of course. http://www.ci.coon-rapids.mn.us/Newsletter/assets/images/agenda121702.pdf , item 14.

As stated previously on this forum, applications for the Met Council seats are available at the Secretary of State web site, and are due by January 10. Public Hearings will be held January 21, 22, 28, and 29, last that I heard. The nominating committee will make recommendations to the governor about the appointments, but he is not bound by them. There was not an application process to be on the nominating committee - people were recommended to the governor by legislators around the metro area, and he chose the people. The nominating committee is required to have at least 3 local elected officials.
