Public Notice

The land trust accreditation program recognizes land conservation organizations that
meet national quality standards for protecting important natural places and working lands
forever. Frenchman Bay Conservancy is pleased to announce it is applying for renewal of
accreditation. A public comment period is now open.

The Land Trust Accreditation Commission, an independent program of the Land Trust Alliance, conducts an extensive review of each applicant’s policies and programs.

trusts that must abide by strict standards and practices in land conservation to achieve
accreditation.

The Commission invites public input and accepts signed, written comments on pending
applications. Comments must relate to how Frenchman Bay Conservancy complies with
