CAB Membership: Seven members appointed by the Governor to five-year terms, at least one of whom shall be experienced in soliciting money from private sources. One member must be: a state land lessee; qualified to manage private land for conservation purposes or income production; a member of the State Bar of Arizona and be experienced in private real estate law; a licensed real estate appraiser; experienced in marketing real estate; a representative of a conservation organization; and a representative of a public educational institution.
The CAB serves in an advisory capacity to the Parks Board and: 1) recommends appropriate grants from the Land Conservation Fund; 2) solicits donations to the conservation donation account; and 3) consults with entities such as private land trusts, state land lessees, and the State Land Department to identify conservation areas that are reclassified and are suitable for funding.
