DISCUSSION re: 2015 Conservations Futures Funding Cycle Resolution:

Conservation Futures funding cycle. Subtracted from that amount is committed projects, staff and other
related expenses. $30,750 may be awarded for O & M projects. The tentative deadline for accepting
project applications is March 2, 2015.
Ms. Pokorny reviewed the program materials in the Agenda Packet which includes the Conservation
Futures manual, application and score sheet.
Commissioner Kler stated she is confused about the Parks and Recreation aspect of Conservation
Futures and asked Ms. Pokorny to elaborate. Ms. Pokorny stated that open spaces such as riding
facilities and parks are not eligible. Park Districts may be involved for trails and buffers, but facilities
are not included.
Commissioner Kler explained that some individuals in District 3 stated they have been pressured to turn
their lands over to public lands. She asked how are property owners approached? Ms. Pokorny replied
that for properties located in floodplains or estuaries, they may be approached and informed of flood risk
and public safety issues. She noted that typically, that is a separate program and welcomed speaking to
the Board about that issue in detail at a later date.
Commissioner Sullivan stated that with the assistance of Conservation Futures, some farms, such as the
Bolton Farm, have been preserved. Due to Conservation Futures' efforts, the County experienced
growth in that part of the economy. They were able to grow jobs instead of losing jobs.
Commissioner Kler moved to adopt RESOLUTION NO. 06 -15 Establishing a Conservation Futures
Program Application Period, Setting an Estimated Amount of Conservation Futures Funds Available
and Approving Program Materials for Use in the 2015 Conservation Futures Funding Cycle.
Commissioner Johnson seconded the motion which carried by a unanimous vote.
