Notice of Proposed Houston/Leon/Madison County FSA Area Community Boundaries
Houston County Courier - March 2009
Houston, Leon and Madison Counties are now a combined county office due to the closing of the Leon and Madison County Offices in 2007.
Regulations pertaining to the structure of the Farm Service Agency Committees changed in 2008 to allow county offices with three combined counties to have no more than seven Local Administrative Areas (LAA’s).
The Houston/Leon/Madison County Committee has proposed the following area community boundaries to be effective for the 2009 COC election to increase the existing 5 LAA’s to 7 LAA’s to ensure better representation of Madison and Leon County producers.
