Council Membership
The core, voting membership of the Huron Stewardship Council is comprised of 9 to 11 individuals from the Huron County community. In forming the council, it was intended that as many community interests as possible would be represented through recruitment of individuals from assorted key backgrounds, including agriculture, forestry, naturalist, angling/hunting, other recreational groups, industry, etc. When needed, new members are selected through a public recruitment and application process. It is hoped that others can be drawn in to participate on committees, as part of various initiatives or in other ways. In addition, when needed, representation will be requested from key resource agencies, such as Conservation Authorities and provincial ministries, in a technical, advisory role
