The Door County Soil and Water Conservation Department needs your help to make sure its Land and Management proposal is addressing your concerns.  The department is preparing to draw up its next ten-year management plan.  A series of public hearings are scheduled to help draw up the best possible management practices.  Erin Hanson, a department conservationist, says past public input has played a key role in ensuring soil and water issues are being handled effectively.

The public hearings on the Door County Soil and Water Conservation Department's proposed management plan will be held February 17th at the Aging and Disability Resource Center on North 14th Avenue in Sturgeon Bay, on February 19th at the Kress Pavillion on Church Street in Egg Harbor and on February 20th at the Brussels Town Hall on Junction Road in Brussels.  Each meeting runs from 6:00 PM until 7:30 PM.
