Introduction to HCCB

The Harrison County Conservation Board (HCCB) was authorized by the people of the county at the general election in 1966 for the purpose of purchasing and developing land for parks, hunting and fishing access, and other recreational use within the county. The Harrison County Conservation Board is directly responsible to the residents of Harrison County. The County Board of Supervisors appoints county residents to the Conservation Board. These appointees are to be chosen on the basis of their demonstrated interest in conservation matters. The Board operates as a corporate body. It makes decisions regarding the preservation of local natural resources and developing a well-organized program of public recreation. The Director, employed by the Board and responsible to the Board, implements the conservation program.	Harrison County, Iowa
