Save the Soil and Water Conservation District!
In April 2026, Mayor Greenberg released his proposed budget for the next fiscal year. In it, he suggests Metro Council slash the Soil and Water Conservation District’s budget by OVER 54%. The District’s partner, the Extension Office, faces a similarly large cut as well.
Such a drastic funding cut would lead to the closure of both offices and effectively end the essential conservation and urban agriculture work that the District does in Jefferson County.
The District’s Board of Supervisors calls on all Jefferson County residents to act in defense of soil and water conservation. Click the button below to learn how you can ACT NOW!
