Jones County Conservation Board · July 13, 2026

Summary

The board voted to apply for REAP funds to support acquisition of wildlife habitat for the Hale Wildlife Area North Addition, approving a resolution moved by Megan Manternach and seconded by Russ VonBehren.

At the July 13 meeting the Jones County Conservation Board approved a resolution to apply for Resources Enhancement and Protection (REAP) funds to acquire habitat for the Hale Wildlife Area North Addition.

The minutes state the board is "interested in acquiring wildlife habitat by means of the Hale Wildlife Area North Addition, AND REAP funds are required for the project," and that the board will submit an application for assistance. Megan Manternach moved to approve the resolution and Russ VonBehren seconded; the minutes record "All ayes. Motion carried."

The minutes do not specify the requested REAP amount, parcel details, or the timeline for closing; those details would be recorded in the grant application and subsequent staff reports if the project advances.
