Interested in Serving Your County?

The Nominating Committee of the Jefferson Soil and Water Conservation District are currently seeking eligible individuals who would be interested to learn more about the role of a soil and water conservation district board member. 

Jefferson Soil and Water Conservation District Board members are Ohio public officials elected at a special election as prescribed by the Ohio Revised Code.  Each of Ohio’s 88 soil and water conservation boards have 5 elected members.  The SWCD “Board of Supervisors” is the governing body for the district.  Board members must be 18 years old or older and reside within the individual county. 

Some of the duties of the locally-led board include identifying local conservation needs and developing, implementing and evaluating strategic plans and programs to meet them; educating and informing landowners and operators, general public, and legislators on conservation issues; and coordinating assistance and funding from federal, state, and local government, district association, and private groups.
