Buena Vista County Conservation Board

ABOUT US

The Buena Vista County Conservation Board was established in 1958. The Board consists of five members appointed by the Board of Supervisors, each for a five year term. The Conservation Board was established to acquire, develop and maintain parks and conservation areas, promote and preserve the general welfare of people, encourage conservation of natural resources and cultivate good citizenship by providing adequate programs for public recreation.

The Buena Vista County Conservation Board meets monthly, usually the second Tuesday of each month. Meetings are open to the public and agendas are posted at the Buena Vista County Courthouse prior to the meeting.

Currently the Board oversees 16 areas containing over 1100 acres. The areas include developed park and wildlife areas where the public can enjoy camping, hiking, picnicking, boating, fishing, hunting, trapping, bird watching and other outdoors activities`.
