    • CommitteesFRENCHMAN BAY COMMITTEES Frenchman Bay Planning Committee A Frenchman Bay Planning Committee emerged from the stakeholder meetings in 2010. The committee met regularly in late 2010 and 2011 to determine next steps toward creation of a Frenchman Bay Plan. A number of subcommittees have formed from this group to take on particular tasks, including retreat planning and web site development.

    • By-lawsBy-laws click here for a copy of the by-laws History The Frenchman Bay Partners Planning Committee [link] grew out of initial stakeholder meetings in 2010. This group was focused on developing a bay plan through late fall of 2011.  An initial draft of the Frenchman Bay Plan [link] was completed in February 2012.  At this point, the Planning Committee recognized that it was functioning more as a Steering Committee, not only working on bay planning but also trying to define how the group would work together in the future.  In March 2012, by-laws were adopted by the group to govern how Frenchman Bay Partners (FBP) would continue to work together to ensure a healthy future for Frenchman Bay.

    • Conservation PlanningConservation Action Planning Frenchman Bay stakeholders explored the need for conservation planning at meetings held on March 30th, 2010 and November 10th, 2010. In January 2011, the Frenchman Bay Planning Committee decided to move forward using an adaptive management process developed by the Conservation Measures Partnership  http://www.conservationmeasures.org/ This process is described in the  document Open Standards for the Practice of Conservation, which will be used to guide our actions as we work toward a sustainable bay. Being able to determine whether actions to conserve habitats and species are working is critical to the success of any conservation effort. As we create a bay plan, we will develop goals that have measurable outcomes, and we will define the methods by which we will monitor the success of our conservation actions.       The main components of the Open Standards are the five steps of the project management cycle. These include:   Developing a vision: What do we want to be happening on our bay as a result of our conservation efforts? Creating a plan that helps to guide progress toward that vision. Setting the plan into action; getting things done and then monitoring the success of our actions Analyzing data and then using…
