John,

A little-known election is coming up soon! From now until March, Conservation Districts across the state will be electing new members for their board of supervisors.

What is a Conservation District? Conservation Districts help people take care of everything they can see outside their windows – from farms, to forests, to urban yards, to rivers, lakes, and coastline. For more than 75 years, they have served as trusted, non-regulatory local partners helping people care for natural resources.

Districts offer a range of voluntary services including assistance with: erosion control, habitat restoration, manure management, wildfire prevention and mitigation, stormwater management, forest plans, irrigation efficiency, noxious weed control, fish barrier removals, livestock stream crossings, and more.

Conservation districts are locally led. Each district is directed by a five-member board of supervisors. There are 45 Conservation Districts in the state of Washington.

Check your Conservation District today – see the full list of election dates as compiled by WCV. [[link removed]] Elections may be in person, mail-in, or online. You may have to request a ballot early from your Conservation District.

This list will be updated as information is available. Is there no election date listed for your Conservation District? Visit their website and contact them directly. Some Conservation Districts may cancel their election if no new candidates have applied.

This office plays an important role in protecting our environment. Voting, especially in local elections like these which can be decided by just a few votes, is a critical way to ensure your voice is heard.
