A meeting to gather ideas and opinions on changes to the conservation districts was held in Dauphin yesterday afternoon.
The acting Manager of the Watershed Planning and Programs Section for the province, Erin Dunbar, explains the main focus of the meeting:
“The main purpose of today’s meeting is to gather feedback and gather ideas from municipalities and conservation districts on the future boundaries of watershed districts.”
Dunbar also explains the timeline for when watershed districts will come into effect:
“We will continue to work with municipalities and districts over the next fiscal year as we prepare for this transition. But the transition won’t occur until at least April 2019.”
Dauphin held the 5th and final regional meeting held in Manitoba.
