In 2010 the Mille Lacs Soil and Water Conservation District
had two Supervisor positions up for election. SWCD candidates appear on the
ballot for the general election which will take place November 2nd, 2010.
Candidates are elected county wide, but must reside in one of the nomination
districts up for election.

SWCDs are special purpose units of government that manage and direct natural
resource management programs at the local level. Districts work in both
urban and rural settings to carry out a program for the conservation, use and
development of soil, water, and related resources. SWCD Supervisors serve four
year terms and meet monthly, discussing the business of the SWCD, distributing
state grant allocations to landowners, setting conservation priorities and
coordinating conservation efforts with other local units of government and state
agencies. SWCD supervisors are not paid a salary; however, they do receive
compensation for attending meetings and are reimbursed for expenses.
