Natural Resource Documents List Thanks to Meredith who has developed a format & made an excellent start at a list of documents which provide useful sample language and ideas for local units developing policies, reg's, plans, etc. Meredith has it organized into 6 categories of documents: * comprehensive plans/policies * native landscaping ordinances ... * sustainable development ordinances * landscaping ordinances * management plans * natural resource inventories We are open to adding new categories as needed. So far, Meredith has put in the table information on 'about 18 documents including: the reference's biographical citation; the location for which it was developed (typically a city); a contact person, organization, and phone number, and a comments section which describes what the document includes that is particularly useful related to natural resource management This third attachment (NR doc examples.wpd) is a table that so far is about 5 pages.long. Each of you are requested to find additional documents we should add to the list and provide (either electronically or hard copv) complete information on each additional document to Peggy Gabriel who will update etc this table. Contact Meredith if you have any questions or suggestions on the format, categories, etc. 4.
