BSEACD fills Precinct 3 seat
Tuesday, November 23, 2021 by Elizabeth Pagano
The Barton Springs/Edward Aquifer Conservation District Board of Directors has appointed Lily Lucas to serve as an interim director for Precinct 3, filling a seat left empty after the resignation of Blake Dorsett in July. According to a press release from the conservation district, Lucas lives in Buda and has been a volunteer water quality tester with the San Marcos River Rangers following her graduation from Texas A&M. “Serving on the board allows me to be an active steward to the aquifers and springs that supply our rapidly growing communities,” Lucas said in a press statement. “My goal is to maintain our aquifers’ water quality and availability. We will achieve this by taking data-driven approaches and educating the residents within the district on the importance of their water source.”
