TOPEKA, Kan. — Kansas Governor Laura Kelly reappointed Lauren Queal Sill of Hutchinson to the Kansas Wildlife and Parks Commission this week.
Serving as a regulatory body for KDWP, the Commission is a seven-member, non-partisan board made up of no more than four members of any one political party. Commissioners serve staggered four-year terms and advise the Secretary on planning and policy issues regarding administration of KDWP.
All Commission meetings are accessible and open to the public, and time is always set aside for public comment on non-agenda items.
The commission works to conserve and enhance Kansas’ wildlife and provide the public with opportunities for the use and appreciation of the state’s natural resources. The governor appoints all seven members of the commission, one from each fish and wildlife administration region.
The governor’s appointments to the wildlife and parks commission are not subject to Senate confirmation.
Kelly also reappointed Emerick Cross and Warren Gfeller. Cross is from Kansas City. Gfeller is from Russell.
