About the event

Want to know how to make your public comments at a Planning Board hearing or written comment have more impact? Want to lay the groundwork for making a legal appeal? Did you know you can bring your own expert evidence into the debate? Join MWA’s Director of Policy and Grants, Alan Hunt, Ph. D., to learn how to make your comments more impactful. Bring a laptop or tablet so you can put at your fingertips the sources, from local ordinances to maps, that count when making a public comment. This will be a hands-on session and has a limited attendance. Reservations required.

Bio: Alan R. Hunt, Ph.D., serves as the Musconetcong Watershed Association’s Director of Policy and Grants. This role includes acting as the River Administrator for the Musconetcong Wild and Scenic River and managing restoration and adaptive reuse for the Historic Asbury Mill. Currently, the MWA is developing its first Musconetcong Wild and Scenic River National Park Service brochure, a watershed-wide interpretive plan, and is beginning the interpretive planning and exhibit design phase for the Asbury Mill’s Interpretive Center. As a native to the watershed, and growing up on a third-generation family farm, Alan’s perspective on people’s interaction with the land and water greatly informs his work, laying a foundation for how and why ecological restoration benefits water quality, wildlife habitat, and recreation.
