Board of Water Commissioners

There are five members on the Board of Water Commissioners who volunteer to serve five-year overlapping terms. Each year, a board member is appointed or re-appointed to the Commission by the Mayor, and that appointment is approved by the City Council. The sole responsibility of the Board of Water Commissioners is the operation of the community’s water system; Medford Water functions independently from other City of Medford operations.

Board meetings are open to the public, and held twice monthly, on the first and third Wednesdays of each month unless otherwise scheduled. Location and time may vary; please refer to the meeting agenda for current location and time details. There is an opportunity for public comment at every meeting.

Meeting agendas are posted on the website when available, and meeting minutes are posted following approval. Please call our office at 541-774-2440 or email water@medfordwater.org if you would like more information about board meetings or to contact board members. If you would like to apply to be a commissioner, please contact the Medford City Manager’s office.
