Dakota County takes a comprehensive, long-term approach to land conservation by working with willing landowners and partners to protect and restore important land throughout the county.
Landowners interested in protecting and restoring their land are encouraged to contact the county's Land Conservation Program staff to discuss options and opportunities. Land protection is generally accomplished when landowners voluntarily sell a permanent conservation easement to the county.
Easements provide an opportunity for the landowner to receive payment, retain private ownership and use of the land, and have the ability to use and sell the land in the future — with the understanding that it will never be developed.
