The Franklin County Conservation District recently held a tour for local legislators to showcase key projects. The tour included a warehouse facility, a large solar farm, a floodplain restoration site and a farming operation with newly-constructed improvements.
Franklin County was the recipient of over $3 Million in grant funding for 2023 for stream restoration work and ag-related improvements for area farmers. In addition, the Franklin County E&S staff is kept very busy with permitting for warehouses and solar farms, along with residential and commercial construction.
Legislators were granted an in-person glimpse of the tireless efforts FCCD staff has put forth in maximizing the recent substantial increases in funding.
The Franklin County Conservation District is dedicated to promoting and educating about the wise stewardship of our natural resources.
