More info: The Vermont Wildlands Act, Act 59 (Vermont's 30x30/50x50 conservation law), Vermont Conservation Design — there are so many policy processes unfolding right now in Vermont that could have profound implications for public lands and wildlands conservation. This event will connect the dots between these key processes, and serve as an official "Stakeholder-Led Listening Session" for the "Vermont Conservation Plan" being generated under Act 59. Expect a succinct presentation, ample time for questions, and a chance to share you feedback in writing and in-person on the Act 59 Vermont Conservation Plan. Plus, enjoy a free, locally-catered dinner with vegetarian, vegan, and gluten free options.
Event is free, but please RSVP to help estimate dinner needs, for the Zoom link, and to receive background information on Act 59.
