Several local cities are seeking member and/or alternate representatives to serve on the Lower Mississippi River Watershed Management Organization (LMRWMO) Board of Managers. As of February 12, cities seeking a member and/or alternate are Inver Grove Heights, South St. Paul, Sunfish Lake, West St. Paul, and St. Paul. Each City member may have one citizen member and one alternate member. If you know of any qualified person residing in a neighboring city, encourage them to apply.
The Board plays a crucial role in decision making for water and stormwater related issues in the watershed. A background in water resources is not necessary to participate. The Board of Managers meets monthly (except for January and July) on the second Wednesday of the month at 3:00 p.m. Interested residents should contact LMRWMO Administrator Joe Barten, [email protected], 651.480.7784, or their respective cities’ contact.
