Board of Directors
A five-member board of directors governs the Washtenaw County Conservation District. Members are elected by residents of the District at its annual meeting. Directors serve four-year terms, are non-salaried, and receive a meeting allowance and reimbursement for mileage and actual expenses only.
The Board is responsible for the development and implementation of all District programs, financial management, organizational oversight and directs long-term strategic planning. The Board meets monthly to hear reports from staff, plan programs and activities, approve bills and financial plans.
Current Directors:
- Shannon Brines, Chair
- Matt Nolan, Vice-Chair
- Hannah Weber, Treasurer
- Maegen Gabriel, Secretary
- Tom Shanahan, Director
The Board meets on the third Thursday of each month, except September, which will be on the fourth Thursday of the month for fiscal year budget review, or if otherwise noted, and January, which will have two board meetings: The third Thursday of the month will be the Annual Celebration, and the fourth Thursday of the month will be our regular board meeting in the Conference Room on the second floor, adjacent to the District Office, 705 N. Zeeb Rd, Suite 201, Ann Arbor, Michigan. All meetings of the District Board are open to the public, and time is allotted for public comment.
