Piatt County SWCD Board meetings are held on the third Wednesday of each month. The meetings will take place at the USDA building in Monticello, Illinois (1209 Bear Lane) unless there are not enough Board members in attendance to meet quorum. In the event a meeting is cancelled or the date/location of the meeting is changed, we will post any changes to our website. Meetings are open to the public.
