Dayhoff Westminster Soundtrack: Maryland Agricultural Land Preservation Foundation Board of Trustees

The Maryland Agricultural Land Preservation Foundation is administered by a thirteen-member Board of Trustees which includes the State's Comptroller, Treasurer, Secretary of Agriculture, and Secretary of Planning, all of whom serve as "ex officio" members. The other nine members of the Board serve "at-large" and represent various regions of the State.

All members are appointed by the Governor and serve a term of four years. At least five of the at-large members are farmer representatives; the Board has representation from the Maryland Agricultural Commission, the Maryland Farm Bureau, the Maryland State Grange, the Maryland Young Farmers' Advisory Board, and the State's forestry industry.

Responsibilities of the Foundation's Board of Trustees include

Disseminating information to farmland owners and other Maryland citizens;

Providing assistance and coordination to the twenty-three Agricultural Land Preservation Advisory Boards;

Promulgating program rules, regulations, and procedures;

Reviewing and approving easement applications; and

Acquiring by purchase or donation, agricultural land preservation easements on productive agricultural land.
