Overview
At the 2024 WACD Annual Business Meeting, the membership voted to create a permanent Ways & Means Committee. This was done in an effort to help WACD better prioritize the many and varied resolutions proposed by conservation districts each year.
Duties of the Ways & Means Committee include:
- Develop policy recommendations for the Board of Directors related to the resolutions adopted by the membership.
- Collect and summarize conservation district input, and use the input to develop draft policies, resolutions, and position statements.
- Provide information to key Association decision makers.
- After resolutions are adopted each year, the committee should:
- Attempt to identify which resolutions are feasible in the short term, within staff capacity, available funding, and also taking into consideration the urgency of the resolutions.
- Develop recommendations to address resolution goals within available WACD resources.
- Meet at least quarterly, with other meetings as needed.
