  • Yonkers Does Away with the Passing Lane but Is It the Right Move to Drive Handle? by Brett Sturman
    Friday, December 15, 2017 Yonkers does away with the passing lane But is it the right move to drive handle? by Brett Sturman In today?s HRU Stakes scheduling, the secret to life and curing tie-up page 9 Bird Parker beat Bold Eagle page 11 Mike Woebkenberg: A non-stop promotional idea machine page 12 Devious Man joins Blue Chip stallion roster page 14 One group to oversee racing in Ontario page 14 Little joins Big M broadcast crew page 16 Cherry buy into Heston Blue Chip page 17 Cammie Haughton made news yesterday on the harness racing podcast Post Time with Mike and Mike, when he announced that that Yonkers will be doing away with its homestretch passing lane. Pending approval from the New York State Gaming Commission (NYSGC), the change is scheduled to take effect when Yonkers begins its 2018 racing season on Sunday, Jan. 7. Haughton was recently appointed last month as the director of racing at Yonkers (full story here), and one of his primary responsibilities is to improve handle. Haughton said Thursday regarding the removal of the passing lane, ?We?re going back to basics? These guys (drivers) are going to pull. They?re not going to sit in there and wait for the passing lane and go on through.? The decision to get rid of the passing lane at Yonkers seems to be more well received than not in the usual social media circles. But the question becomes, will doing away with the passing lane improve the Yonkers product and in turn, the tracks handle? By any objective account, the style of racing at Yonkers leaves much to be desired.

  • New Meadowlands Stadium Project Final Environmental Impact Statement 4-170
    New Meadowlands Stadium Project Final Environmental Impact Statement 4.15 Land Use and Zoning 4.15.1 Existing Conditions The existing and proposed land use and zoning patterns around the Project Area were identified through the review of the NJMC Master Plan (adopted in January 2004), the HMD Official Zoning Map, and recent aerial photographs. The land use and zoning discussion is presented below in the context of state, regional and local plans including the New Jersey State Development and Redevelopment Plan, the NJMC Master Plan and the Meadowlands Sports Complex Master Plan. 4.15.1.1 Land Use The New Jersey State Development and Redevelopment Plan (State Plan), adopted in 2001, was developed to preserve and enhance the quality of life for all residents of New Jersey (New Jersey State Planning Commission, 2001). The State Plan provides a balance between growth and conservation by designating planning areas that share common conditions with regard to development and environmental features and serves as the underlying land use planning and management framework that directs funding, infrastructure improvements, and preservation for programs through New Jersey. The State Plan recognizes the statutory jurisdiction of the NJMC over the HMD and thus relies on the plans and regulations of the NJMC to implement the objectives of the State Plan. Nevertheless, the State Planning Commission has made efforts to cooperate and coordinate land use planning with the NJMC. The NJMC has developed a Master Plan to promote the careful balancing of environmental and economic development needs in the HMD (NJMC, 2004). As part of the Master Plan, the NJMC evaluated existing land uses in the HMD (Figure 4-27).
