Conservation Futures Committee Opening

King County Councilmember Bob Ferguson is looking for an interested
District 2 resident to serve on the Conservation Futures Citizen
Oversight Committee. Conservation Futures is a voter-approved levy fund
dedicated to open space preservation. The Citizen Oversight Committee
makes recommendations to the Council on important regional open space
acquisitions. The Council dispersed over $8.8 million of dedicated
funds for 2005, including funding for Thornton Creek.

District 2 is basically Northeast Seattle: the area bounded by Aurora
Ave. N. to the west, NE 130/125th Sts. to the north, Lake Washington to
the east, and the Ship Canal to the south.

Please email your resume and letter of interest by December 15, 2004,
