South Douglas Conservation District  Supervisor Appointment

A board seat on the South Douglas Conservation District is available for appointment by the Washington State Conservation Commission. Conservation district board supervisors are public officials who serve without compensation and set policy and direction for the conservation district. An applicant must be a registered voter in Washington State, and may be required to own land or operate a farm. Applicants for appointed positions do not have to live within the district to apply. For more information, please contact the South Douglas Conservation District or read the Guide to Appointment for Conservation Applicants that can be found on the Conservation Commission website (https://scc.wa.gov/elections-and-appointments) To apply please visit the Conservation Commission website. Applications and supporting materials must be received by the Commission no later than March 31, 2025.

The five member Board of Supervisors meets on the first Monday of each month, except August. The supervisors set policy and direction for the Conservation District, serving a three year term without compensation. (We can reimburse for travel to monthly meetings) They oversee conservation practices in southern Douglas County, promoting education and protecting natural resources.  Currently, the district is involved in developing the Firewise Program in Douglas County, Tree and Shrub Sale, water quality projects, and a cost share program for its cooperators.  Your time would involve monthly board meetings as well as community contact to identify resource needs and provide assistance, whether technical, financial or educational.
