Editor’s note: This is the third story in a series about the seven special districts serving Marion County, as identified by the State Auditor’s Office as part of an effort to increase public awareness of how their money is spent. The Enterprise is taking a closer looking at the special districts that serve Marion County, how they are funded, and what they do for the community.
At first, the Marion County Soil Conservation District may seem like it only benefits the agricultural community, but it exists to serve the entire county.
