PUBLIC LANDS – Conserve our public lands, their habitats and cultural remnants of native and pioneer activity, engage in land use policies and advocate that public lands remain in public ownership.

WATER – Promote efficient use of our existing local water and advocate “Conservation First,” before pursuing unsustainable water supplies like the Colorado River.

SMART GROWTH – Advocate sustainable development policies that prevent sprawl, foster conservation of natural resources and preserve a high quality of life.
