CACHE COUNTY – The Cache County Open Space Advisory Committee is inviting landowners to submit proposals to help preserve Cache Valley’s scenic and rural character. Committee member Eric Eliason joined KVNU’s For the People on Wednesday afternoon to discuss the committee’s recent successes and encourage landowners to explore preservation options.
The committee is calling for applications from landowners who wish to keep their land undeveloped. Eliason emphasized that the process is voluntary and the intent is to benefit both the community and the landowner.
“This is a win-win,” he said, “and if this works for you, let’s work together.”
The committee was established after voters overwhelmingly approved a measure to allocate $20 million to fund open space preservation in five target areas
