BACKGROUND:
Jes Braun was the Minnesota GreenCorps member hosted by Rosemount from fall of 2018 through
summer of 2019. During her tenure she created the Conserve and Preserve Blog posted on the City’s
website. From January through August of 2019, she created 28 blog posts on a wide range of topics,
including information on city projects, energy, water, and recycling. No new posts have been added since
Jes’s departure; however, the City recently joined the CleanWaterMN which develops regular blog posts
for city use on water quality. Examples of the Conserve and Preserve Blog can be seen at
