The Board of Trustees of the Alabama Forever Wild Land Trust will hold its second quarterly meeting of 2020 on June 11 at the Alabama Nature Center, 3050 Lanark Rd., Millbrook, Alabama. The meeting will begin at 10 a.m. in the Lanark Pavilion.
The meeting is being held outdoors to facilitate social distancing guidelines for both board members and attendees. To help prevent the potential spread of COVID-19, attendees are encouraged to maintain a constant distance of 6 feet from others and to wear a mask during the meeting. Attendees should also follow any additional instructions provided at the meeting. The pavilion is covered. However, attendees are encouraged to dress casually, due to the possibility of warm temperatures.
At this meeting, updates on Forever Wild program activities and tract assessments will be presented. This meeting will also provide an opportunity for any individual who would like to make comments concerning the program to address the board.
The public is invited to attend this meeting and is encouraged to submit nominations of tracts of land for possible Forever Wild program purchase. Written nominations may be submitted by email to Forever.Wild@dcnr.alabama.gov or by letter to the State Lands Division, Room 464, 64 N. Union St., Montgomery, Alabama, 36130. Nominations can also be made online at www.alabamaforeverwild.com/contact/nominate_land_tracts.
Quarterly meetings of the Forever Wild Board are held to maximize public input into the program. Only through active public participation can the best places in Alabama be identified and conserved in order to remain forever wild.
