Title

Receive a presentation from the Conservation Working Group

 

Abstract

Introduction & Background: The Conservation Working Group (CWG) is an intragovernmental initiative that seeks to bring together and promote collaboration among Chatham County departments/agencies whose work addresses the County’s environmental goals. Each department selected a staff representative to attend monthly meetings. The Board of Commissioners has requested that the CWG provide bi-annual presentations to the Board.

                     

Discussion & Analysis: The presentation will provide an overview of the ongoing and recently completed conservation work from across the member departments and will highlight collaborative efforts within the CWG. The presentation will focus on updates from the latter half of 2024.

How does this relate to the Comprehensive Plan: The CWG was formed in an effort to better coordinate Chatham County’s progress towards achieving the environmental goals within the Comprehensive Plan.

 

Budgetary Impact: N/A

                     

Recommendation/Motion: Receive the presentation from the Conservation Working Group providing updates on conservation work across the Chatham County government.
