Minnesotans have an important opportunity coming up to engage with the Fish and Wildlife Advisory Committee. This group is established in state law to make recommendations to the legislature and the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources regarding hunting, fishing, habitat management, and related issues.
The committee will hold an online public meeting from 5:30-7 p.m. Wednesday, Dec 2. All Minnesotans are invited to attend. The committee will discuss its prior work and collect public input. That input will help inform the group’s focus for 2027. A link to the meeting is available on the Fish and Wildlife Advisory Committee webpage.
The meeting agenda will include an overview of the committee, a presentation of the committee’s 2026 annual report and recommendations, discussion and comment time, and a solicitation of 2027 focus areas.
Current committee members are listed on the Fish and Wildlife Advisory Committee members webpage. Detailed information including requirements for appointees, committee responsibilities, past committee reports, and past Game and Fish Fund reports, can be found on the Fish and Wildlife Advisory Committee webpage.
