  • Wetlands of Saratoga County New York
    Acknowledgments THIS BOOKLET I S THE PRODUCT Of THE work of many individuals. Although it is based on the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service's National Wetlands Inventory (NWI), tlus booklet would not have been produced without the support and cooperation of the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Patrick Pergola served as project coordinator for the wetlands inventory and Dan Montella was project coordinator for the preparation of this booklet. Ralph Tiner coordi­ nated the effort for the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service (FWS). Data compiled from the NWI serve as the foun­ dation for much of this report. Information on the wetland status for this area is the result of hard work by photointerpreters, mainly Irene Huber (University of Massachusetts) with assistance from D avid Foulis and Todd Nuerminger. Glenn Smith (FWS) provided quality control of the interpreted aerial photographs and draft maps and collected field data on wetland communities. Tim Post (N.Y. State D epartment of Environmental Conservation), John Swords (FWS), James Schaberl and Chris Martin (National Park Ser­ vice) assisted in the field and the review of draft maps. Among other FWS staff contributing to this effort were Kurt Snider, Greg Pipkin, Kevin Bon, Becky Stanley, and Matt Starr. The booklet was reviewed by several people including Kathleen Drake (EPA), G eorge H odgson (Saratoga County Environmental Management Council), John Hamilton (Soil and W ater Conserva­ tion District), Dan Spada (Adirondack Park Agency), Pat Riexinger (N.Y. State Department of Environ­ mental Conservation), Susan Essig (FWS), and Jen­ nifer Brady-Connor (Association of State Wetland Nlanagers).

  • VILLAGE of NORTHVILLE DRAFT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Village Board Review Rev 1
    2017 VILLAGE OF NORTHVILLE DRAFT COMPREHENSIVE PLAN Village Board Review Rev 1 ADOPTED: RESOLUTION: ~ 0 ~ VISION STATEMENT In 2035, as you cross the bridge into Northville you will find the Village to be an age diverse yet community minded population living in a quaint and historical atmosphere having a relaxed lifestyle complimented by a strong commercial tax base. The Village's commercial core area will provide residents and visitors with a wide variety of essential goods and services such as grocery, convenience and hardware stores, pharmacy and a bank. The commercial core will 4also be home to a mix of residential uses located above existing commercial buildings providing for an increase in population density to support the commercial establishments. Excellent emergency services to include ambulance, fire and police will continue to serve and be supported by the local population. A healthcare facility will continue to operate within the Village and continue to provide general healthcare services using the latest technologies. Among these essential service establishments, you will find just as many unique family owned and operated businesses such as restaurants, a recreational outfitter, outdoor sporting goods establishment and specialty foods. The Village will feature a low property tax rate and a government that is proactive, ready to assist and support, financially and by other means initiatives important to its citizens. Housing choices will be available for both senior citizens, millennials and young families alike. The Village shall continue to support and be served by a strong school system educating students for both college and the 21st Century workforce through increased educational technologies and disciplines.

  • 2017 New York Loon Census Results
    ADIRONDACK CENTER FOR LOON CONSERVATION 2017 NEW YORK LOON CENSUS RESULTS On July 15, 2017, more than 450 observers participated in the 17th Annual New York Loon Census, observing a total of 633 loons on 155 (81%) of the 192 New York Loon Census lakes, including 544 (86%) adult, 81 (13%) chick, and 8 (1%) immature loons. “This is the first year since we have been on Garnet Lake (30+ years) that we have had 2 successful nesting and hatchings! Each family has 1 surviving chick. We are able to count 4 visiting loons enjoying the lake today.” ~Garnet Lake “They seemed very relaxed - hooting to the kids. Those are some big healthy looking chicks! Also there must have been a lot of fish - they just skimmed their bills in the water to come up with a fish. I don't think I've ever seen that before.” ~Jones Pond Adirondack Center for Loon Conservation 15 Broadway, Saranac Lake, NY 12983 Mailing: P.O. Box 195, Ray Brook, NY 12977 518-354-8636 info@adkloon.org www.adkloon.org www.facebook.com/adkloon Of the 256 Census reports received in 2017, 253 were included in the analysis, as three reports had observations that were conducted outside the Census hour or were duplicated efforts on a lake. “Population in our area is increasing. Observed a group of 7 adults earlier in spring. As we were observing the second pair this morning, they both began the tremolo call. A minute later a bald eagle flew directly over with an eye on the loons.” ~St.
