The St. Clair Region Conservation Authority (SCRCA) is seeking input from the public on their draft 2023-2028 Strategic Plan that was prepared throughout the summer and fall in consultation with SCRCA staff and Board of Directors.
SCRCA officials say public input will be critical in shaping the SCRCA’s strategic actions to meet the short- and long-term goals of the organization and meet the needs of the Authority’s member municipalities, watershed communities, and partners, over the next five years.
“A series of open houses are scheduled throughout the watershed to allow residents to meet with Authority staff to discuss and comment on the strategic plan,” SCRCA officials said in a media release.
The draft 2023-2028 SCRCA strategic plan can be accessed online, here.
“Residents who are unable to attend one of the in-person open houses and would like to submit comments and feedback on the strategic plan can email the SCRCA at comments@scrca.on.ca,” SCRCA officials say.
“The deadline for comments and feedback is Tuesday, November 22, 2022.”
