The Whidbey Island Conservation District is looking for candidates to fill a vacant seat on the district’s board of supervisors.

The mid-term vacancy is due to the recent death of South End resident Duke LeBaron.

Residents of the island who are interested in applying for the post can contact Board Chairman Fran Einterz at 360-672-2331. More information can also be found on the supervisors’ page on the district’s website at  www.whidbeycd.org.

After appointment, the new supervisor will serve a term that runs through May 2012.
