The NCCD staff consists of a team of 8 individuals that are overseen by a county commissioner appointed Board of Directors.  The NCCD Board of Directors is composed of 4 Farmer Directors and 2 Public Directors that serve four-year terms, and a Commissioner Director that serves a one-year term.  The guiding philosophy is that decisions should be made at the local level by citizens who are familiar with the local environment.  The board and staff meet at least once a month at a public meeting which typically occurs on the 1st Thursday of the month.
