  • Analysis of Route Alternatives (Pdf)
    Analysis of Route Alternatives Assessing Feasibility - Planning Methodology Community Outreach and the Planning Process Public and stakeholder engagement was a critical part of the master planning process. Four public meetings were held (see photos at right) at key intervals during the planning process. Each of the meetings had strong participation, with over 100 people attending each event. Online outreach included direct emails to several local email lists and meeting notifications on the project’s website and Facebook page. Public comments were also solicited using a dedicated e-mail address as well as an online survey that received more than 450 responses. The Steering Committee helped raise awareness of the planning process and opportunities for public and stakeholder input by compiling a list of, and notifying, public agencies and local organizations that focused on topics such as recreational activities, preservation, and economic development. Many of these organizations distributed meeting announcements to their own lists of constituents, which increased awareness of this project and helped attract public participation. Public Meetings Meeting 1: February 17, 2014 Introduced the project and master planning process, along with trail types that might comprise the different alignment possibilities. edL a table mapping exercise in which participants provided detailed input on the route in three sections. Each section was discussed at three or more tables, after which each group presented their discussion to the larger group. Meeting 2: July 9, 2014 Provided updates on the route analysis, including Breakneck Connector funding application (see page 34 for more info on this project component). Fielded public comments and then responded to open questions, with the design team utilizing display boards and maps.

From Denning’s Point State Park to Madam Brett’s Homestead, the city’s landmarks tell the story of Beacon’s early settlement, active role in the Revolutionary War, and industrious past. The recent opening of Dia: Beacon, a world-class contemporary art museum has spurred new interest in the City, and pressure to accommodate new residents and tourists should not come at the expense of historic and natural resources that have shaped the character of the city for decades. Instead, rising popularity should be complemented by an active campaign to preserve and protect Beacon’s scenic resources from incompatible development.

Hogue, Christina Ritter, Angela Wrigley Experience the beauty, culture, and history that Dutchess County has to offer! Got Dutchess? YouTube video on Dutchess County Changes since Midterm • Through the midterm we learned how Dutchess County sites played important roles in the Revolution and development of America, the demographics and populations evolved over time, and that it has a vibrant history, which make this county so unique. • With this knowledge, we further studied and advanced our knowledge about Dutchess County by researching each of our key sites and surrounding area in more detail. This allowed us to create a guidebook and itinerary, lesson plans for each site, and elaborate on our wayside exhibits and highway route markers. Table of Contents • Lesson Plans (Alisha La Hogue) • Guidebook and Itinerary (Christina Ritter and Jacob Gaglio) • Highway Route Markers (Angela Wrigley) • Wayside Exhibits (Kerry Caputo) • Website links for Dutchess County Lesson Plans Alisha la Hogue Students will have the opportunity to participate in various activities at each of the 6 sites to enhance their learning and experience on the trips. After all the trips students will have to do a larger project on their overall experience and knowledge of Dutchess County. This group project will be in the form of a travel pamphlet, video/ commercial, poster board presentation, or a skit. They will include photographs and sketches that they took on the trip and information that they learned. Activities at each site Mount Beacon Incline Railway: While tourists no longer have the opportunity to visit the top of Mount Beacon with the incline railway, students will be painting a picture of the landscape that they see from the bottom of the site or if they want to use their imagination, pretend they were at the top of the Railway and paint a watercolor picture of what they imagine tourists would have seen.

  • FCGHT Master Plan Final
    Fishkill Creek Greenway & Heritage Trail Master Plan June 2013 Trail Signage There are many different issues to consider in the design of trail signage. Signs along the FCGHT will need to serve a variety of purposes, including control of pedestrian traffic, provide warning of potential hazards to users, identify connection points, provide educational content or historic information, and mark distances. Signs will need to be designed so they are legible, properly placed and made of durable materials that are resistant to vandalism and easy to maintain. The need for signage must be balanced with the idea of creating a visually pleasing landscape and should not interfere with the intended use of the trail. Signage Types The design of signage will vary depending of the type of information is trying to be conveyed. Signage types include: • Trail Identity Signage should be designed in concert with the development of trail branding and incorporated into all developed signage. • Trail Directional Signage should follow established standards for control of traffic and warnings including AASHTO Guide for the Planning, Design, and Operation of Pedestrian Facilities July 2004 ed. and the New York State Manual for Uniform Traffic Control Devices, latest edition. • Interpretive and Educational Signage can be established using context and themes such as environmental and historical topics. For example: • Environmental - The Fishkill Creek is designated as a Coastal Fish and Wildlife Habitat (New York State Department of State, Coastal Resources). As such, it is recognized as a rich ecosystem (ecosystem rarity, species vulnerability) and is considered irreplaceable. This designation can be represented in the education programming of the trail through interpretive signage, tours or other user engagements.
