  • Chapter 7 Recreation, Open Space and Cultural Resources Planning Base Studies Village of Rye Brook, New York
    Chapter 7 Recreation, Open Space and Cultural Resources Planning Base Studies Village of Rye Brook, New York CHAPTER 7 RECREATION, OPEN SPACE AND CULTURAL RESOURCES 7.1 Overview The Village of Rye Brook has close to 3,000 acres of open space, which may be found in public parks and schools, along parkways and natural waterways, at privately-owned country clubs, and within housing developments and corporate parks. These areas are variably designated for both active and passive recreation, open or limited access, or for natural resource conservation. Rye Brook’s parks and open spaces serve as places of recreation and respite, as community gathering places, centers of learning, and as reflections of its culture and history. Municipal parks and open space account for approximately 34.7% of total land area in the Village of Rye Brook, approximately 0.25 acres per resident. Residents also benefit from nearby regional parks and facilities owned and operated by neighboring municipalities. The Village is located in a region that is rich in recreational re- sources. Its neighbors within Westchester include the City of Rye, the Village of Port Chester, the Town of North Castle and the Town of Harrison, which provide a variety of both public and private rec- reational opportunities. The Village’s location on the Connecticut state border affords Rye Brook residents access to a significant num- ber of out-of-state parks, historic sites and nature preserves. A. Recreational Resources Public parks provide a large portion of the outdoor recreational re- sources within the Village of Rye Brook; however, other opportuni- ties for outdoor recreation include: Country clubs Walking paths Trailway routes Community centers Schools B.

    WESTCHESTER TRAILS ASSOC. Visit us on the web at: www.westhike.org Join our Yahoo Group: http://groups.yahoo.com/group/westhike SPRING HIKING SCHEDULE AND NEWSLETTER MARCH, APRIL and MAY, 2019 Hikes ratings are based on terrain (mileage is stated separately in the description). An “easy” hike is one with relatively flat terrain while “easy to moderate” adds rolling hills. A “moderate” hike has steeper grades, possibly going up and down all day, and may involve some bushwhacking or short rock scrambles (like much of Harriman Park). A “strenuous” hike has steep ascents, often with rough or difficult terrain on much of the hike (like most Schunemunk trails, Breakneck Ridge, etc.). These ratings apply during good weather. Bad weather may lead to poor footing and increase the difficulty of any hike. Hiking boots and sufficient drinking water (1-2 liters) are required on all hikes. A trail lunch should be carried unless otherwise noted. Hikers with improper footwear, without sufficient water, or who are otherwise unprepared, may be refused or turned back by the leader. Well behaved dogs on leashes are welcome if the hike is listed as “dog friendly,” but dogs are not allowed on other WTA hikes. New hikers are asked to contact the leader in advance of the hike. In fairness to yourself and others, please choose a hike that is within your abilities - contact the leader if you have any questions about the level of difficulty or experience required. All who participate in the activities of the Westchester Trails Association do so at their own risk.

  • Chapter 1: Background and Planning Context
    Chapter 1: Background and Planning Context 1.1 INTRODUCTION Metro-North Commuter Railroad Company (“Metro-North” or the “Project Sponsor”) is proposing the construction of a new, expanded parking garage at 50 Haarlem Avenue (formerly referred to as 525 North Broadway) in White Plains, Westchester County, New York. The Project Sponsor is seeking a Congestion Mitigation and Air Quality (CMAQ) grant from the Federal Transit Administration for the design and construction of the proposed garage (the “Proposed Action”). The purpose of the Proposed Action is to accommodate the projected future demand for parking at the North White Plains railroad station, allowing Metro-North to better serve its existing customers and to accommodate future railroad customers. The provision of adequate parking at this location would encourage the use of mass transit at a station that has frequent service. 1.2 PROJECT LOCATION The Proposed Action is located on the site of the existing customer parking garage at 50 Haarlem Avenue between Glenn and Bond Streets in the City of White Plains. It would be sited to the east and across Haarlem Avenue from the existing North White Plains station (see Figure 1-1). 1.2.1 EXISTING STATION The North White Plains railroad station is located along Metro-North’s Harlem Line on Haarlem Avenue west of New York State Route 22 (Route 22) and east of the Bronx River Parkway, about ¼ mile north of Interstate 287 (I-287), in the northern section of the City of White Plains, Westchester County, New York (see Figure 1-2). The station is located near the municipal boundaries of the City of White Plains and the Towns of North Castle and Greenburgh.

    May 25, 2013 Karen Thornton, American Viticultural Area Designations Regulations and Rulings Division Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau 1310 G Street NW Washington DC, 20220 [email protected] Dear Ms. Thornton, Please find included here a revised petition for the declaration of a new American Viticultural Area, entitled the Champlain Valley AVA. This petition was created on behalf of the Lake Champlain Grape Growers Association. I previously included an endorsement from our local congressional representative, Bill Owens, whose interest is in the economic development of this region and through his participation as a member of the House Agricultural Committee. Finally, I include a set of USGS maps that define the trail. I believe I have addressed the items you have requested in this revise and resubmit. Most importantly, I provided extensive climatological data to show how this region is differentiated from the Adirondack and western foothills region to the west, the Hudson Valley to the south, and Vermont to the east. Each of these regions has a growing season averaging two weeks longer than we do, and hence can grow the Vitis vinifera grapes that cannot be grown in this proposed region. Hence, the characteristic of grapes in the proposed region is almost exclusively North American hybrid. It is this factor that most profoundly defines and differentiates our proposed region. Should you need any additional information, please do not hesitate to contact me. Best regards, Colin Read North Star Vineyard 1383 North Star Road, Mooers, NY, 12958 Telephone 518-561-3828 Email [email protected] Regulations and Rulings Division Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau 1310 G Street NW Washington DC, 20220 A Petition to the Alcohol and Tobacco Tax and Trade Bureau of the Department of the Treasury to Establish the: Champlain Valley AVA (American Viticultural Area) Submitted by: An Association of Wineries in the Champlain Valley of New York State (1)Name Evidence [i] Name Usage The name of the viticultural area described is the Champlain Valley of New York.
