Minnesota Statute 103D.311 requires that the County Board select watershed district managers from an aggregate list of persons nominated by the townships and municipalities that are within the watershed district. Lists from townships and municipalities must be submitted to the county board at least 60 days prior to the expiration of the term of office of a manager. The County Board shall make its appointment at least 30 days prior to the term expiration. The county will aggregate the names of nominees from all the lists submitted by the townships and municipalities for the board’s consideration. If the aggregate list of nominees contains at least 3 names, the county must appoint a manager from the list of township and municipality nominees. In making the appointment, the county must also consider the statutory requirement that managers be appointed to fairly represent the hydrological areas of the district. If the aggregate list contains less than 3 nominee names, or if appointing a nominee from the submitted lists will not allow for fair representation of the various hydrological areas of the district, the county board may appoint any individual who resides within the watershed district and is otherwise eligible to serve. If you wish to submit a list of nominees for consideration or wish the incumbent to be considered for reappointment, your list should be sent to me prior to April 22, 2023. The county's advisory board application form is attached. Please duplicate it as necessary. Thank you for your assistance in filling this important watershed position. Sincerely, Holly Hess Administrative Assistant 14949 62nd Street North Stillwater, MN 55082 Cc: County Board of Commissioners Kevin Corbid, County Administrator Stephanie Souter, Public Health Program Supervisor, Public Health & Environment
