The League of Women Voters of the Hamptons, Shelter Island, and the North Fork will host a program on serving on a town board advisory committee on Monday from 6:30 to 8 p.m. at the East Hampton Library. The program was postponed from March 30.

The speakers will discuss how they joined a town advisory committee and committees’ meeting schedules, responsibilities, and accomplishments. Committees to be covered are the planning board, sustainability committee, community housing advisory board, housing authority, dark skies committee, Latino advisory committee, board of ethics, historic burying ground committee, community preservation fund advisory board, and hamlet citizen advisory committees.

Those who attend have been invited to ask questions after the presentations. Refreshments will be served. More information about the league is at lwvhsinf.org.
