City Youth Council (CYC)

The City Youth Council (CYC) was first appointed by the City Council in the fall of 2003 to give Grand Junction's youth a voice in government. The CYC advises the City Council on issues relative to youth activities and community involvement. Members must be between grades 9 through 12. Members serve two-year terms.

The Youth Council meets on the second and fourth Thursday of each month at 6:00 p.m. in the Administration Conference Room, on the 2nd Floor of City Hall. Please check the schedule to the right for dates.
