How does the Soil and Water Conservation District Operate?


The District is a non-taxing body governed by a Board of Directors consisting of five local citizens. Directors are elected to a two-year term. The Board meets once a month. All meetings are open to public.

Operating funds are derived from state and local appropriations and from self-generated income by means of services, sales and fundraisers. Federal and state grants are available for specific programs.
