durango community bear meeting


The inaugural meeting of the Bear & Trash Working Group will take place in early January. This working group brings together community leaders and stakeholders for discussion on city bear and trash policies with the goal of making recommendations for moving forward with clear, meaningful and workable solutions to reduce bear-human conflicts in the community. Special thanks to KSUT's Beth Warren for moderating this vital community discussion.

This meeting is open to the public, but the Working Group will be limited.
