What: Community Planning Meeting on Forest Integrity and Habitat Blocks
When: Tuesday, January 16th at 6:00PM – POSTPONED DUE TO WEATHER
Where: Grand Isle School Cafeteria
As Grand Isle considers updates to its town plan, a new planning requirement has taken effect asking VT towns to identify forest blocks and habitat connectors. While regulation is not required, the town should understand what is most ecologically important to plan for.
In this presentation, Jens Hawkins-Hilke, a Conservation Planner with Vermont Fish & Wildlife Department, will explain the concepts and maps that identify important forest blocks, wildlife habitats, wetlands and more. Please attend to learn more about the rich natural heritage in Grand Isle. The meeting format will be a 45 minute presentation followed by Q&A and discussion.
Open to all! Pizza will be served.
