Sept. 30 deadline for Tahoe Resource Conservation District board application

The Tahoe Resource Conservation District is seeking a board member to serve a four year term on its five-member board.
“Tahoe RCD plays a vital role in preserving and restoring natural resources in the Lake Tahoe Basin,” said Director Dave Roberts in a press release from the organization. “We rely heavily on our Board to help direct our efforts and connect us with resources, stakeholders and current issues within the community,” 
The Tahoe Resource Conservation District Board of Directors is comprised of five members appointed by the El Dorado County and Placer County Board of Supervisors. Terms are staggered. The Board, which meets the second Tuesday of every month, carries out the Tahoe RCD mission by providing guidance to Tahoe RCD staff for carrying out Tahoe RCD’s programs.

The Tahoe RCD is one of nearly 3000 Conservation Districts across the country helping people to protect land, water, forests, wildlife, and related natural resources. The California State Legislature formed the Tahoe RCD in 1974. It is a non-regulatory, grant-funded, not-for-profit agency.
Interested applicants must reside or own property in the Lake Tahoe basin in either Placer County or El Dorado County and are asked to submit a letter of interest along with an application to the El Dorado County Board of Supervisors, which will appoint the successful party, by September 30.
