A Special Election is being called since unfortunately the Annual Meeting Election results were unable to be certified by MDARD as presented. The District Administrator apologizes for the failure to follow the proper procedures which contributed to this result.

Cass County Conservation District is currently accepting nominations for a conservation-minded county resident to serve on the Board of Directors to fill a partial 1-year term ending on 12/7/2025 for one (1) Board of Director position.
