In a recent meeting of the Lexington Rural Land Management Board, members discussed the introduction of a new QR code system aimed at simplifying the application process for landowners. This initiative is designed to enhance accessibility and encourage participation in land management programs. By scanning the QR code on informational cards, landowners can directly access the application and relevant resources on the board's website.

The board expressed optimism that this new approach would attract more interest from eligible property owners, particularly for larger properties that could benefit from land management assistance. Council members were encouraged to share this information with their constituents, ensuring that those who might need help are aware of the available resources.

In addition to the QR code initiative, the board reported the establishment of two new easements for the current fiscal year, marking a positive step in land conservation efforts. The meeting concluded with a reminder of the importance of collaboration and communication among council members to maximize outreach and support for the community.

As the board continues to implement these initiatives, they aim to foster greater engagement from landowners, ultimately contributing to the sustainable management of rural land in Fayette County.
