Join us for a workshop on how future growth under different land use regulations and development scenarios can reduce water use and protect riparian habitats across the County. Hosted by WRLT and its partners at the University of Arizona and in local government. Join in on the effort to plan today’s land uses for tomorrow’s river.

During the Watershed Moment community workshops, we’ll present:

-Preliminary analyses clarifying how water consumption is tied to different land uses across the County,
-The methodology for how we’re mapping growth scenarios and measuring watershed impacts, and
-A community survey requesting your input on prospective land use regulations.

The Wood River Land Trust has begun a scenario planning project to answer the question: Which land use regulations, zoning tools, and programs can best protect the land, water, and wildlife of Blaine County, Idaho? Specifically, we’ll be mapping growth under land use regulation scenarios targeting how to reduce the demand for water and protect sensitive habitats in the floodplain.

We hope to see you for one of the following community workshops:

-Monday, July 20, 4-6 PM at Bellevue Public Library
-Wednesday, July 22, 4-6 PM at Hailey Town Center West
-Thursday, July 23, 4-6 PM at Ketchum’s Warm Springs Preserve
