As a member of the Board of Directors, East Multnomah Soil & Water Conservation District. I hope to use my many years of experience with the Portland Parks & Recreation and as a land management consultant (pesticide reduction our specialty), to assist the landowners in managing their property in an environmentally friendly manner.

Education of landowners is a big part of what the East Multnomah Soil & Water Conservation District does.

The two areas that landowners can help improve the environment are:

Invasive Vegetation, Multnomah County and Oregon are being choked by invasive vegetation. Steps must be taken to conytol &/or remove the masses of invasive vegetation, which is dangerous to plants, animals and people.

Water, many of our streams are being polluted in small ways that add up as the streams combine with other streams and rivers. By educating and working with landowners, many small steps can have big results that benefit all of us.

As a East Multnomah Soil & Water Conservation District, Director I will be working for you.
