Waletzky, M.D. State Council Chair November 2007 1 Dear Governor Spitzer: Greetings from the State Council of Parks, Recreation and Historic Preservation. The Council comprises the Chairs of the eleven Regional Park Commissions, the Chair of the State Board for Historic Preservation, and the Commissioners of State Parks and Environmental Conservation. We are very happy to submit to you the State Council of Parks’ 2007 Annual Report. The report describes the State Council’s priorities for 2008, highlights the Office of Parks, Recre- ation and Historic Preservation’s achievements over the past year, and sets forth recommenda- tions for improving the stewardship of New York’s 213 State Parks and Historic Sites which have nearly 60 million yearly visitors. While New York’s State parks face many challenges and opportunities, one issue is paramount: the state park system has suffered from decades of underinvestment, with the result that the parks have developed a $650 million backlog of urgent capital projects. These include health and safety concerns (outdated sewage treatment, water supply, and electrical systems; improperly closed landfills; underground tanks; and aging dams); pressing rehabilitation needs (deteriorated campgrounds, bathhouses, swimming pools, recreation facilities, historic structures, nature centers, roads, bridges, and boat launches); provision of public access to newly acquired parks; and natural resource stewardship projects.
