Nebraska Environmental Trust's Next Five Year's Funding Category Roundtable Meeting

FRIDAY, JUNE 26TH, 2009 Kearney Holiday Inn and Convention Center 110 2nd Avenue Kearney 68848 9:00 A.M. – 3:15 P.M. The Nebraska Environmental Trust would like to invite you to a roundtable meeting on Friday, June 26th. Registration starts at 9:00 am and the roundtable begins at 9:30 am. at the Kearney Holiday Inn and Convention Center (110 Second Avenue, Kearney) to discuss the Trust’s funding categories for the next five years. Every five years the Trust Board reviews the funding categories and involves the public in developing the funding categories for the next five years. We believe the best people to review the funding categories are those that have an interest in Nebraska’s natural resources, such as yourself. Your participation would be very valuable to us by providing insight and perspective as we establish our funding categories for the next five years. The Trust has funded over 1100 projects and provided over $142 million across the state since 1994. Input from this roundtable will be used by the Trust Board to establish the draft funding categories that will be presented at public meetings in each of the Congressional districts this summer and eventually refined and presented to the Trust Board in November to be voted upon. There is no charge for the summit and a lunch will be provided without charge. Please confirm your participation by calling (402) 471-5409 or e-mail Lori at lori.moore@nebraska.gov by Friday, June 19th, if you have not already contacted her. If you are unable to attend, but know of someone that might be interested, feel free to have them contact us. If you have any suggested funding categories, feel free to provide them to us any time prior to the meeting, otherwise bring them with you. Hope to see you in Kearney.
