This Strategic Plan and You


Cataraqui to 2020 is designed as a long-range plan for twenty years. As such, a regular review of the plan is necessary to assess its successes and limitations, and to redirect the efforts of the Authority where our priorities have shifted or staff need to assess new circumstances. We know that we must constantly direct our effort where it has the greatest benefit.

In today's world it is more difficult than ever to know how to "act locally while thinking globally." Cataraqui to 2020 is a document that will give the Conservation Authority direction in setting its programs at the local level. Next in this process is to develop a work plan. But to a great extent, our strategic thinking needs to be supported by residents, agencies, and corporations.

Careful and wise stewardship of individual land holdings, from the small suburban home lot to large institutional, industrial or rural land holdings of vast hectares, is something that will benefit future generations, and is an ethic that can be instilled in our own children and grandchildren. Conservation of our water resources can be practised by the individual farmer, the apartment dweller, industry, and urban and rural landowners. The importance of the individual, of your role in seeing these priorities met, is critical to our success. Each of us can help to protect our environment at the local level, in our own environment.
