County proposes DNR land package
posted 09/11/02
San Juan County's response to the Department of Natural Resources need to generate revenue from trust lands is being sent to Commissioner of Public Lands Doug Sutherland. San Juan County Land Bank Director Dennis Schaffer and County Planning Director Laura Arnold presented the draft proposal to the BOCC at their Sept. 10, 2002 meeting.
The county is requesting from DNR an agreement to pursue the package with the various agencies named. If Sutherland agrees, a series of community meetings would be held to solicit public input.
