Local Work Group Meeting 9-16-16

The Winooski Natural Resources Conservation District (WNRCD) will host a Local Work Group meeting on Friday September 16, 2016 at The Waterbury Congregational Church, 8N Main Street, Waterbury VT. The meeting will run from 7:00 to 9:00 p.m., for the purpose of discussing natural resource concerns and issues of District residents. All are encouraged to attend and discuss natural resource conservation concerns throughout the Winooski Conservation District. The District encompasses all of Chittenden County, Washington County and the towns of Orange, Williamstown and Washington in Orange County.

The information gathered will help the WNRCD update the drafting of the District’s 5 year strategic plan, priorities projects and future partnerships. The priority concerns identified will also help inform ranking questions for landowners seeking funding through the Natural Resources Conservation Services (NRCS). This is an opportunity for District residents to share thoughts on a variety of natural resource issues ranging from urban runoff, sodium chloride application, wetland protection to invasive species management. District Manager; Corrina Parnapy said: “We are all partners in the protection of our natural resources. It is essential that the public help shape the direction and work that is accomplished on their behalf. We encourage residents to come out, meet our staff, enjoy some refreshments, learn more about the WNRCD and partner with us for the protection of our natural resources.”
