Board of Supervisors Elections and Appointments
District Information
Each Conservation District in Washington is governed by a five-member board, referred to as “supervisors.” Three supervisors are elected by registered voters in the district. Two are appointed by the State Conservation Commission. As dictated by state statute, at least two of the elected and one of the appointed supervisors must own land or operate a farm in the district. The term of office is three years, and supervisors serve without compensation. State statute also requires conservation district elections to be held in the first quarter of the calendar year.
