Committee approves resolution to participate in Wisconsin DNR county conservation aids program

Adams County Property and Recreation Committee · September 17, 2026

Summary

Members voted to adopt a resolution allowing Adams County to apply annually for the Wisconsin DNR County Conservation Aids program (a rolling resolution that can be used for five years); staff noted past awards (about $1,700 historically, with one local Arrowhead award near $7,000).

The Adams County Property and Recreation Committee voted Sept. 17 to adopt a resolution authorizing participation in the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources' County Conservation Aids program and enabling staff to apply for small‑scale projects under that program.

“ Generally, ours has been historically about 1,713,” Darren said when describing the county's typical allocation from the program; he added that, in prior years, a department application helped the county obtain roughly $7,000 for an Arrowhead project. Darren said the DNR allows a broad resolution to remain in effect for up to five years so the county can apply quickly for small projects rather than preparing a fresh, fully itemized fiscal note each year.

The committee moved to place the resolution on the books and authorized staff to apply for program funds as opportunities arise; Taylor made the motion and Rocky seconded, and the committee voted to pass the resolution. Staff said they will submit applications by the DNR's Oct. 1 application deadline for any identified projects.
