LTTV is hosting a three-part series about growth in the Treasure Valley, conservation easements, and alternative solutions!

This course will discuss how urban sprawl affects wildlife, agriculture, fire risk, and quality of life in Idaho. We will examine conservation easements and their alternatives, funding gaps, and the challenges of protecting land without state support. We also will explore smart growth, zoning, and cooperative community land use when traditional tools fall short. With increasing insecurity around grant funding and development, this course will highlight the urgent need fort innovative conservation strategies to protect Idaho’s future.

This event is free for Osher members. This is the final installment of the three-part series.
