Land Conservation Advisory Group

Land Conservation Advisory Group

Executive Dow Constantine, with input from the King County Council, convened a Land Conservation Advisory Group to review and make recommendations on the Executive’s Land Conservation Work Plan. The Advisory Group represents the business community, land conservation organizations, cities, the environmental community, and other stakeholders. The Advisory Group met nine times from September 2016 to January 2017, and issued a Phase 1 Report which provided feedback on the initial work and recommended additional planning and research needed during 2017. The Advisory Group met six times from September 2017 to December 2017, and issued a final report to the Executive and King County Council in December 2017.
